News From a news agency Context piece
  • 3 de Noviembre beat Sol de América 1-0 in Capiatá to keep alive its hopes of remaining in Paraguay’s División Intermedia.
  • The club remains in the relegation zone and needs a run of victories to avoid dropping to the Primera B or potentially the Nacional B.
  • Sol de América’s defeat virtually ended its hopes of challenging for promotion.

3 de Noviembre kept its survival hopes alive on Tuesday with a 1-0 victory over Sol de América in Capiatá. The result revived the Tricolor’s chances of staying in Paraguay’s División Intermedia, although its position in the relegation average remains critical.

The club from San Pablo effectively jeopardized its top-flight survival during the first half of the season. Its improved form in the second half has not yet been enough to lift it out of the danger zone. It now needs to string together victories to remain in the division.

Even if 3 de Noviembre manages to escape, the task would be close to miraculous. Three clubs will be relegated to the Primera B or potentially the Nacional B of the Unión del Fútbol del Interior.

Diego Martínez scored the only goal in the 46th minute. 3 de Noviembre will face Resistencia in the next round, while Sol de América will play Fernando de la Mora. The defeat left Sol de América’s promotion campaign virtually over.
