Bolívar and Angostura lead the way
In Group Oriental, Bolivar and Angostura are holding the top positions after successive wins in the Venezuelan Segunda Division.
Angostura hammered Minerven 7-0 last weekend but they settled for a much smaller margin of win this week as they edged past Dynamo Puerto 1-0.

The first half between Dynamo and Angostura was tight and nervy as the two sides cancelled each other out.
But the decisive moment of the game came on the hour mark when a penalty was awarded to the visitors. David Moreno stepped up to score his third goal in two games this season.
Angostura move on to six points from two games and lead the group on goal difference.
Bolivar make it two wins out of two
Elsewhere, Bolívar defeated Libertador 1-0 at Estadio Cachamay de Puerto Ordaz to join Angostura on six points.
Bolivar dominated the match but were denied by the Libertador goalkeeper on multiple occasions.
A formation change at second half made Bolívar more dynamic in attack and they broke the deadlock in the 64th minute after a tidy finish from Keiner Pérez.
