Winning Mentality Leads Cerro Porteño to Record Victory

The winning mentality that Francisco Arce instills in his players is undeniable, they only think about it and that's how they achieved a record of eight consecutive victories, something that hadn't happened in 46 years, a new milestone for Chiqui in his beloved club.

Claudio Aquino, scorer of the winning goal against Guaireña, made it clear the mindset of the blue and red team.

"We think about winning, about maintaining the advantage. We don't think about whether the other rival wins or not. We have to win and rely on ourselves and luckily against Guaireña we were able to take the three points and maintain the difference a bit more," Aquino highlighted, looking ahead to the upcoming derby on Sunday at 17:30 at La Nueva Olla.

An Aquino who is in great form, only in the match against Guaireña he achieved an accuracy rate of 91 percent in his passes, with 41 successful passes and only 4 missed. He is a great asset for the coach in the midfield.

46 years have passed (1974) for Cerro Porteño to win eight consecutive matches in a tournament.
