The OFI Club Cup begins the round of rematches in the first phase. This afternoon and night two of the Salta teams play, Universitario and Ceibal, while tomorrow Ferro Carril will play. After poor starts, the three can use this weekend to get into qualifying positions.
THE ‘U’ IN TRINIDAD
University visits the leader of Serie B of the ‘A’ Cup, Porongos de Flores. The Salta champion still has a lot to give and has been improving with the passing of the games. If you get a positive result today, you will have taken an important step to the second phase.
Cup ‘A’. Series ‘B’. 1st date, 2nd wheel.
7:00 pm: Porongos (Flores) – University (Salto). Juan A. Lavalleja Stadium (Trinidad). Referees: Washington Banchero, Roberto Bronee and Mauro Oberlay (short of Colonia.
For the same series they play at 7:00 p.m. Deportivo Amanecer and Laureles in Paysandú.
CEIBAL IN TACUAREMBÓ
Ceibal’s company in the first phase is more accessible because, unlike the other Salteños, he only needs to get into the top three of his series. After the stumble of the debut, he established himself in the defensive balance and was giving security. He is second, he faces the pointer again, whom he defeated last Sunday at the Dickinson, and he knows that a win is almost a free pass.
Cup ‘B’, Series ‘A’. 1st date, 2nd wheel.
2.30 p.m. Progreso (Tacuarembó) – Ceibal (Salto). Raúl Goyenola Stadium (Tacuarembó). Referees: Gonzalo De León, Andrés Dotta and Carlos Martínez (short for Flores).
By the same series, tomorrow from 3:30 p.m. Hurricane and Peñarol in Rivera are measured.
FERRO TOMORROW
Ferro Carril travels to Artigas tomorrow for an urgent victory against San Eugenio from 15.30
