Santo Domingo. Club Atlético Pantoja will seek its second victory in the playoffs of the Dominican Republic Football League this Saturday, when at the football stadium of Parque del Este, they face Delfines del Este FC, in the second matchday of the second phase of the 2025-2026 season.
"The group, in general terms, is doing very well," said Adolfo Monsalve in the preview of the match against Delfines del Este. "We have had a good response physically and that is reflected in the emotional and football aspects." Monsalve highlights the start in the playoffs after the victory against O&M FC, and believes it can be important when they face the cetaceans this Saturday. "We continue working, evolving, and we hope to play a very complete match that allows us to remain at the top of the table," he pointed out. The previous positive results do not dazzle the Venezuelan coach, who recognizes the virtues of the opponent while betting on those of his team. "Delfines is a complicated rival, we know them very well and we will have to be at very high levels of attention, with the dynamics and intensity that has characterized us. The idea is to continue having positive feelings towards what we want," Monsalve pointed out. The medical report remains favorable for the Guerrero squad, who hope Yordy Álvarez will be available next week, the rest of the squad is available for Saturday's match. The match will be played starting at 3:30 in the afternoon at the Parque del Este Football Stadium and will be broadcast through the LDF channel on YouTube.
