A goalless draw that leaves Caracas on the edge

A classic defined by the red card

The red card to N. Sanvicente of Caracas FC in the 66th minute was the turning point in a match that promised more. With the score at 0-0, the defender's foul left his team a man down and conditioned the rest of the game.

Deportivo Tachira FC, who came into this clash in third place, tried to take advantage of the numerical advantage, but failed to convert their opportunities. The final 0-0 draw reflects a lack of clarity in the attack from both teams, which found themselves caught in a game more physical than technical.
