After a 0-0 tie in regulation 90 minutes and 1-1 on aggregate, Deportivo Táchira won the penalty shootout against Carabobo FC at the Misael Delgado Sports Center in Valencia, to win their eleventh title in the FUTVE League and second in a row.
The incombustible Maurice Cova scored the first penalty for Táchira, while “El Avioncito” Richard Blanco crashed her on the crossbar. Later, Lucas Bruera stopped taking Carlos Sosa, while for the fourth penalty of the “Garnet”, Marcel Guaramato sent her to the side of the arc, leaving the visitors with a goal to celebrate.
And, in fact, that was the case, because Pablo Camacho converted to start the excitement of all the Tachirense partials who approached the Carabobeño arena.
With this championship, “Carrusel Aurinegro” is now one step away from matching Caracas FC, which won its last crown in 2019 and lost the last final precisely to the Andean team last season. In addition, he is the third pennant in four years for the club, given that in 2021 they also dispatched Caracas FC.
For the coach and also former player, Edgar Pérez Greco, it has undoubtedly been a honeymoon, because with a few weeks in office he managed to win the titles of the Clausura Tournament and now the Absolute for the star of the 2024 season of the FUTVE League.
