Olimpia is having a good second semester in terms of results, it is the only leader of the Clausura 2024 tournament and this week it advanced smoothly to the quarterfinals of the Paraguay Cup 2024 after beating Atlético 3 de Febrero from Ciudad del Este.
Meanwhile, the opposite happens with its traditional rival. Cerro Porteño was very relegated in the race for the local league title and on Wednesday suffered a new elimination from the “Copa de Todos”, a situation that would have generated ridicule from the “Dean”.
As soon as the final whistle blew and the unusual farewell of the “Ciclón” from the Paraguay Cup was confirmed, Olimpia made a curious publication that most Internet users understood as a chicane for the staunch rival.
The text “Keep going, Titan!”along with a photo of the fringed coach, Martín Palermo, laughing, was the publication that went viral on social networks.
Was it with a dedication to Cerro Porteño? There is no certainty, but there is no doubt either.

Pablo Zeballos made himself felt online after Sol de América’s victory and classification against Cerro Porteño.
El Danzarín won 2-1 last night in Dos Bocas to eliminate Ciclón from the VI edition of the Paraguay Cup.
And one who was very attentive is the always controversial Pablo Zeballos, who did not remain silent either. In this sense, the scorer celebrated the Solense victory with a suggestive post on his personal X account (Twitter). “Vamoooos Soool,” he wrote.

PZ made his first weapons in the First Division of Paraguayan football with Sol de América, and then moved on to the service of Cerro. The rest of the story is known: he arrived in Olimpia with Marcelo Recanate and starred in several episodes that have been discussed to this day. His career was long and arduous and, for the moment, he is without a club, although he does not clarify if he has already hung up his boots.
