The Olympia Arch is in good hands, and the facts prove it. Faced with the impossibility of Alfredo Aguilar’s participation in recent matches, Uruguayan Gastón Olveira took advantage of his moment to become a figure, especially in the classic against Cerro Porteño in “La Nueva Olla”.
In an interview with Versus Radio on 970 AM, the Uruguayan celebrated his moment. “I hadn’t played for three months and in 6 days I had three games and I think I was up to the task, happy with my ability to be mentally strong to know how to wait and take advantage of my opportunity. I always kept focused on getting something time” said the goalkeeper.
This season, Olveira has played four games, two for the local tournament and two for the Copa Libertadores. Will he start against Fluminense? At the moment it is a “nice” problem for DT Julio Cáceres, considering that Aguilar has already returned.
“My teammates make me feel like a starter, I am aware that maintaining this regularity I will have more participation in the team, whoever plays, is committed to the club’s objective, we showed it on the pitch” concluded the goalkeeper.
“In the good and bad moments one must be calm in the head. Now we have to focus on Wednesday’s game. 3 months ago I did not play, in these games that I played I think I was up to the task” Gastón Olveira, player of #Olympiad on #VersusRadio @Universo970py pic.twitter.com/YQX1HZHhNl

In Cerro Porteño there was only resignation after the classic lost to Olimpia in “La Nueva Olla” and it remains to turn the page. The director of the Ciclón, Miguel Carrizosa, spoke with Versus Radio of 970 AM about what the meeting was and admitted that the fringe was underestimated.
“A bath of humility is good for us at this time, the idea is that it makes us all bigger, see the things that have to be corrected for later because I think that it was not played as we had been doing it, it is better that it happens now and not in the final moments of the championship” expressed the manager.
On the other hand, Carrizosa admitted that the Ciclón will face increasingly difficult games. “All the teams are going to want to get the beauty out of Cerro’s game, Olimpia surprised us in the first ten minutes and when the goal came, and forced us to approach the game in a different way,” he added.
Cerro lost undefeated in the tournament and could also finish second if Libertad wins his match on Monday.
