The next duel will be once morest Peru on Friday, July 15.
Positive start. Venezuela debuted with victory in the Copa América Femenina, beating Uruguay 1-0 with a great goal from striker Deyna Castellanos.
In a game that became complicated and with a strong attack as the minutes passed, the stopped ball became the best weapon of the Venezuelans to unlock it.
It was like this that at 78 minutes, the new Manchester City player had hers, one of the few, in a free kick to send her to the back of the net with a superb execution.
The ball hit the crossbar and ended up getting, before the eyes of goalkeeper Sofía Olivera, who was a heroine of the charrúas by taking several out of danger, in a duel that took place in the city of Armenia in Colombia.
Venezuela dominated the actions at will, but lacked the finishing touch. She was not so fine in the definition and it was regarding to cost her three units that are essential for her aspirations.
Very important triumph of the Women’s Vinotinto ????????
In a group B with Argentina and Brazil it is vital to have results like this.
They must work on the definition, today they wasted some actions.
But Deyna appeared, what a goal yours!#TuCopaAmerica pic.twitter.com/nFrFelmJ5j

Ysaura Viso had the clearest chances, but the good actions of the defense and also of the goalkeeper denied her the cry of goal and the score remained 0-0 for much of the match.
For the complement, the entrance of Mariana Speckmaier gave pepper to the burgundy attack and the clear goal arrivals began to occur more often.
Viso had it once more, just two minutes into the second half, but the goalkeeper responded by sending it to the corner kick in a great intervention.
At 53 it was Deyna who had a clear one in a good combination with Speckmaier. The maracayera defined three fingers and the spherical narrowly missed.
Uruguay continued in theirs, a hard, rough game and a counterattack to generate danger and that is how they were regarding to open the scoring, with a shot from outside the area that hit the crossbar.
Venezuela was able to add to the account, but Speckmaier was unable to connect well with a cross from Michelle Romero and then the goalkeeper denied Oriana Altuve in a one-on-one, near the end.
In the end, an important victory, three points in his pocket and preparation for the duel with Peru, which will be on Friday the 15th, since he will have a break on the second matchday.
