Teen sensation Brayan Alcocer leads the line for Mineros, ably supported by F. Carabalí and V. Navas. Atlético’s front three should be the envy of many Liga FUTVE teams, however. Infante is their top scorer with 6. KO on the hour.
32’: GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!
The hosts have the lead! Victor Navas assists Starling Yendis, who rifles in from the edge of the area. He’s the first of the three Yendis brothers to score in 2021! 1-0. #futve
HT: Mineros 1-0 Atletico Venezuela|
Yendis’ goal separates the two sides at halftime. It’s a deserved lead and if anything should be bigger. Plenty of talent in the visitors’ arsenal to get back into this, though. #futve
49’: OOOOOOOO!
Maestrico González nearly rolled back the years with that one. The veteran captain, in his last season of professional football, pulls an exquisitely executed overhead kick from out his repertoire, but it narrowly misses the Mineros goal. 1-0. #futve
58’: There’s plenty of Atletico pressure building this half. Mineros may be left to rue not making more of their dominance in the opening 45’. For now, they still lead. 1-0. #futve
Joel ‘La Bicicleta’ Infante gets his seventh of the season! With Frank Feltscher, Tommy Tobar, and Maestrico on the pitch, it’s still Infante who takes the spot kick. Talisman. 1-1. #futve
78’: Majestic from Maestrico. The captain, the attack-minded midfielder, saves his side with a last-ditch sliding tackle as the last man! What heart to get back to defend. 1-1. #futve
89’: PENALTY TO ATLETICO!
Castillo earns a penalty within minutes of replacing Infante. Tobar to take. 1-1. #futve
90’: GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!
Tommy Tobar thumps it straight down the middle into the roof of the net. Jose Gonzalez will be heartbroken for conceding the penalty with a poorly timed tackle. 1-2. #futve
FT: Mineros 1-2 Atletico Venezuela|
A game of two halves as Mineros let their halftime lead slip in the worst of ways: two penalties with the second, decisive, one coming in the 90’ minute. Atletico leapfrog them into third. #futve

The FUTVE English Team of the Month|🗓 July 2021 - Thread|
UCV and Deportivo La Guaira dominate our XI with Daniel Sasso’s superb effect on UCV securing him our Manager of the Month award. Results from 01/08 were included for consideration. #futve
UCV had kept just one clean sheet before July, now they’ve kept five. Forero has been fantastic between the sticks, denying Lala, Metro, Mineros, and Monagas. Only group leaders Caracas have breached his net. Captain fantastic. #futve
Kaki is the perfect blend of style and substance in the Caracas defence and marked his July with 1 goal, 1 clean sheet, and two performances considered by InStat as in the best 25 of the week. He’s the 3° highest rated CB in the league. #futve
Hermanos and Estudiantes meet once again as both look to secure a top four finish this season & stave off Zamora.
Both sides have handed the other big losses this season, with Hermanos winning 4-2 and Estudiantes winning 6-2. #FutVe
17': GOOOOOOOL! ⚽️
Edson Rivas runs on to a strong but loose pass into the box and slots home the opener to make it 1-0 for Estudiantes de Mérida!
The young striker continues his strong 2021 season and gives the visitors the advantage in a must-win match. #FutVe
27': GOOOOOOOL! ⚽️
Oh my word. Zapata splits the Estudiantes back line with a back heel pass which finds Antonio Romero, who slots it past the keeper to equalize for Hermanos Colmenárez!
It's a stylish goal to make up for a poor defensive moment earlier in the half. 1-1. #FutVe
An early penalty save for Real Frontera’s Rafael Castrillo keeps things interesting as Real Frontera wins 1-0 thanks to a 90th minute goal from Heiber Diaz.
Alexis Vargas scores for Llaneros but Ureña come back late and win 2-1 with goals from Carl Villasmil and new signing, on loan from Deportivo Táchira, Jesús Orozco.
Orozco with a goal and an assist on his debut. #LigaFutVe2
Today’s first game has just got underway at the Estadio Brígido Iriarte. It’s geographically a local derby, but being hosted in Caracas.
Watch for free on the Gol TV or TVES website. 0-0. #futve
30': No goals so far tonight as Aragua battle for safety and Gran Valencia battle for a top two finish. Both sides have had their chances and Semidey has come up with several big saves for Aragua. 0-0. #FutVe
44': GOOOOOLAAAZOOOO!
Arace rises high to meet a cross from a free kick and rockets in an absolutely beautiful header into the far corner to give Aragua the lead!
Aragua have a vital lead and, if it holds, are out of the relegation spot. 1-0, Aragua. #FutVe
Follow this thread for tonight’s lineups, goals, halftime, and full time scores!
Both games are free to watch on the Gol TV and TVES websites. #futve ⬇️
