In an entertaining match, Real Sociedad took a valuable 1-1 draw against Platense at the Excelsior stadium, keeping the dream of sustainability intact.
Carlos Bernárdez scored a penalty for the Selacians in the 57th minute, Breyner Bonilla evened the cards to 75.
With this result, the oil producers add 15 points to the overall ranking and one point from Real de Minas, which is penultimate with 16 units and this Sunday they will receive Real Spain. The Selacians remained fourth in the Northern Group with 12 points.
The Selacians stay with one man less at minute 30
Both teams took to the field with the need to add profit and bet on it from the start. The porteños had the first at Carlos Bernárdez’s feet at the start, but his shot was rejected by the post.
Bernárdez and Romero then tried to shoot. The Tocoeños also created danger with shots from Riky Zapata, Bryan Rivera and Rony Martínez, but without luck.
At minute 30, Platense was left with 10 players due to the ousting of central defender Marcos Martínez by taking down Rony when he escaped to the frame alone.
The goals came in the second half
Despite having one man less, coach John Jairo López stuck to the offensive proposal and his team always looked for the rival goal.
The prize for persistence came in the 57th minute when Bernárdez scored a penalty after being knocked down in the area by defender Breyner Bonilla.
After the goal, the locals began to manage the rally’s actions. Castellón then sent Osman Melgares onto the field and managed to match the actions.
The draw came at minute 75. In a corner kick taken by Melgares, Bonilla went forward and sent her head to the nets.
Real Sociedad ended the game and pushed for the second, but goalkeeper José Marino Pineda was huge and didn’t let anything pass.
