Club Bolívar•AttackerClub Bolívar dominated possession and created chances throughout but were stunned by Deportivo La Guaira's clinical counter-attacking in the first half through Flabian Londoño's opener. The Bolivian side controlled 72% possession and registered 25 shots to La Guaira's four, but found themselves chasing the game for 50 minutes. Rafael Arace's red card in the 64th minute paradoxically helped Bolívar as they threw everything forward, with Dorny Romero finally finding the breakthrough with 11 minutes remaining. The result keeps both teams' Copa Libertadores hopes alive, though Bolívar will rue their inability to convert overwhelming territorial dominance into victory despite creating 87 dangerous attacks to La Guaira's 16.
