The 21st round of the 2026 Apertura Tournament ended with a goalless draw between San Lorenzo and Sportivo Luqueño at the Club Deportivo Capiatá Stadium. San Lorenzo, playing as the home team, failed to leave the bottom of the table, while Luqueño remains in second-to-last place, both in a delicate situation in the fight against relegation.
In the first half, both teams created chances but lacked accuracy. In the 22nd minute, Iván Torres scored for San Lorenzo, but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review. Referee David Ojeda was called by the video system operator, Carlos Figueredo, to analyze the play and found that the move originated from a foul by Bruno Piñatarez on Sergio Diaz.
In the second half, the game remained lively, with goalkeepers Federico Cristóforo of San Lorenzo and Alfredo Aguilar of Luqueño standing out by preventing goals.
With the draw, Sportivo Luqueño reached their fifth draw of the championship and have not won in three matches. The team has 20 points and sits at 128 in the average table, nine fewer than Ameliano (137) and ten below 2 de Mayo (138). San Lorenzo, meanwhile, recorded their sixth draw, totaling 12 points and occupying last place. To escape relegation, they will need to accumulate 38 points between the last round of the Apertura and the entire Clausura Tournament.
