Blooming and The Strongest play a low-scoring game in La Paz
Blooming and The Strongest faced off in La Paz for the 15th round of the Bolivian First Division Clausura Tournament, in a match that, despite The Strongest’s 1-0 victory, was characterized by a lack of clear scoring chances and a rather blocked game.
The match started with a more active Blooming, but little by little The Strongest took control of the ball and dominated possession. However, scoring opportunities were scarce on both sides.
Blooming had to deal with a series of yellow cards in the first half, receiving cautions from H. Suarez, J. Arce, and F. Arismendi. The lack of precision in attack and the strong defense of The Strongest prevented Blooming from opening the scoring.
The Strongest, for their part, found the goal in the 56th minute through J. Amoroso, who took advantage of an assist from L. Ursino to beat the opposing goalkeeper. The goal gave the team from La Paz more peace of mind, who were able to control the pace of the game in the second half.
Blooming tried to react with offensive changes, including the entry of C. Menacho, who scored the equalizing goal in the 63rd minute, but the goal was disallowed for a previous foul. The substitutions failed to generate a significant change in Blooming’s game.
The match ended with The Strongest winning 1-0, a result that leaves the team from La Paz at the top of the Clausura Tournament standings.
