12 de Junio and Atlético Tembetary met in the División Intermedia Regular Season on September 10th, 2026, and shared the points in a 1-1 draw. The home side had dominated possession, but Tembetary held firm after going behind. To be fair, the match never looked settled despite the statistics.
R. F. Vera Encina opened the scoring in the 23rd minute, then added a second just sixty seconds later. The floodgates seemed to open, and 12 de Junio appeared ready to pull away. And here's the thing — Tembetary didn't fold.
Then came the 38th-minute goal, though the scorer wasn't recorded in the available data. By then, Tembetary had regrouped. D. Valdez equalised in the 49th minute, and the momentum shifted. Things came to a head when the home side pushed forward again.
12 de Junio controlled 70 per cent of possession and registered ninety attacks compared to Tembetary's sixty-four. Yet both sides managed three shots on target each. Many shots with one goal means chances went begging, and that was the pattern all evening.
The result leaves 12 de Junio in second place with forty-four points from twenty-two games. Tembetary sit tenth with twenty-nine points, nine defeats already on their ledger. A fourth straight win would have been nice for the hosts, but this was a different outcome.
12 de Junio's recent form has been mixed — a 1-1 draw against Benjamín Aсеваль, a 0-1 loss to Sportivo Carapéga, and a 3-2 victory over Paraguari among their last five. Tembetary showed similar inconsistency, with a 0-2 defeat to Encarnación followed by a 4-3 win against Santaní.
We had tipped the home side to win at fifty-five per cent confidence. The prediction didn't materialise. Tembetary's resilience in the second half, Valdez's equaliser, and the inability to press for more after the 38th-minute goal changed everything. The draw keeps both sides within reach of each other in the table.
