Bolívar secured a 4-2 victory over Aurorá in the Apertura round 14 of the Primera División on 8 August 2026. The visitors took control early and never looked back, moving top of the table while Aurorá remain in fifth place. José Velázquez opened the scoring in the 14th minute before Bolívar doubled their advantage through Jorge Velasquez on 50 minutes. Daniel Asprilla added a third on 58, and Henrique Sánchez rounded off the tally with a late strike in the 91st minute.
Aurorá had a goal disallowed for offside through Miguel Rangel just before half-time, and he was immediately replaced at the restart. The home side pushed forward but Bolívar's structure held firm. José Velázquez picked up a second booking on 46 minutes, while Ariel Amarilla went off the ball on 52. Bolívar brought on Sebastián Altamirano and Daniel Asprilla together in the 63rd minute, then Daniel Romero and Eduardo Saavedra came on for the visitors in the 69th.
Statistics tell a story of Aurorá dominating territory without converting it. They completed 290 passes to Bolívar's 363, but the visitors created two big chances to none and hit the target more often. Aurorá had 68 attacks and 72 passes into the final third, yet their six shots on target produced only one goal. Bolívar's goalkeeper made four saves compared to Aurorá's single attempt, a reflection of how the away side kept things tight when it mattered.
The result extends Bolívar's lead at the summit to 12 points after 18 games. They sit on 39 points with 12 wins, three draws and three defeats. Aurorá have 27 points from six victories, nine draws and three losses, and the gap between them and the leaders is now pronounced. Bolívar have won four of their last five matches, while Aurorá have drawn three of their last four outings.
