Mineros Potosi and Wilstermann Cooperativa played out a 3:3 draw in the opening round of Nacional B's Regular Season on 23 August 2026. It was a match that lived up to expectations for a season opener, with both sides finding the net three times. By then, the scoreboard told the full story: eight goals between them, and neither side could claim victory.
The statistics paint a picture of an open game. Mineros Potosi registered 81 attacks to Wilstermann's 75, suggesting the home side pushed forward more frequently. Yet Wilstermann managed to keep their shape defensively, despite conceding three goals. The away side had zero corners to show for their efforts, which speaks to a different kind of attack altogether.
Discipline was generally good, though not perfect. Mineros Potosi received one yellow card, while Wilstermann were shown two. The goal kicks tell their own tale: Wilstermann had five to Mineros Potosi's one, which might indicate they spent more time under pressure in the final third. And here's the thing — when a team sits deep and soaked it up, you expect to see those numbers.
Both sides entered this match with empty tables. Mineros Potosi sit fourth, Wilstermann second, but those positions mean little when both have played zero games, earned zero points, and suffered zero losses. The standings are worth a sentence when they carry meaning, and right now they carry none. This was a clean slate for both clubs.
What this result means is simple: two points apiece, and no one has taken an early lead in the standings. The goal difference stands at zero for both teams, which is fitting for a draw of this nature. Wilstermann's recent form from 2024 — including losses to Santa Cruz Nueva — suggests they might have been looking for a fresh start. They got one, at least in points.
