After a hectic start to the season, the Puerto Cabello Academy has lost a bit of gasoline, a situation that has left them tied for first place with Deportivo Táchira, it is for this reason that this Saturday’s duel once morest Monagas (8:30 pm) will be decisive when it comes to maintaining that first place taking since the beginning of the 2023 season.
It was precisely last day when the “carousel Aurinegro” was able to beat the locals (1-0) and equalize them in the table with 38 points thanks to a goal by Nelson “Teto” Hernández.
That fall for the team led by Noel Sanvicente meant the second in a row and the third of the season.
Puerto Cabello goes for revenge
Coincidentally, the first setback they suffered in the championship was with their rival on duty on April 23.
For that occasion, the match was played at the Monumental de Maturín stadium and the score closed 3-2.
For the “warriors of Guarapiche” Edanyilber Navas (41′) and Leandro Rodriguez scored twice (68′ and 70′).
Alfredo Stephens at minute 19 and Edwin Peraza (90+4′) were in charge of setting the Buenos Aires notes.
new strategist
If the current situation of the Puerto Cabello Academy team has been complicated in these two weeks, the reality is even worse for Monagas, and that is that the Orientals have added six games in a row savoring the bitter pill of defeats in the Futve League.
This situation made the Institution’s plans go ahead and they will look for a new strategist to lead the team since Jhonny Ferreira became Sports Manager.
The chosen one was an experienced player in our national football like Antonio “Tony” Franco, who will make his debut on the Monaguense bench following the team had its corresponding rest day last week.
