Venezuela Wrap: Trujillanos stay clear

A 1-0 win at home to Deportivo Tachira was all Trujillanos needed to maintain their two-point buffer at the top in the Clausura campaign.

James Cabezas scored the game's only goal on 31 minutes at the Estadio Jose Alberto Perez, seeing Pedro Vera's Trujillanos to their fifth straight win.

Apertura champions Mineros de Guayana are second and inflicted just Zamora's second loss of the season with a 4-2 victory.

Blanco's goal just after the hour-mark sealed the result, leaving Zamora fourth and four points behind the leaders, albeit with two games in hand.

Ever Espinoza's brace saw Llaneros de Guanare to a 3-1 win at home to Yaracuyanos and Deportivo La Guaira came from behind to beat Atletico El Vigia 2-1.
