Estudiantes held at Bolivar in Libertadores

(GSM) – Estudiantes continue to struggle in Group 3 of the Copa Libertadores, as the Argentinians were held to a goalless draw at Bolivar.

After a 4-1 defeat by Alianza Lima in February, it was vital for defending champions Estudiantes to collect three points at what is considered the weakest team in the group, Bolivia’s Bolivar.

But at Hernando Siles stadium in La Paz, Estudiantes once again failed to convince and the entirely Argentinian selection returned home with just one point.

Juan Aurich could now surpass Estudiantes for second place, but need a win over fellow Peruvian side Alianza Lima when the two face on Wednesday.
