LIMA, Feb. 27(Xinhuanet)-- Bolivian soccer team The Strongest set off to Santiago, the capital of neighboring Chile on Monday, to face Union Espanola in its second overseas match in the Libertadores Cup battle, according to reports from Bolivia. The Bolivian team have just lost 0-2 to Brazil's Goias last week. Manager Victor Barrientos told Bolivian reporters that The Strongest would play a good match without neglecting the defense, trying to control the ball in midfield and look for holes in the rival's defense in order to counterattack swiftly. Veteran player Juan Baldivieso told press that Union Espanola, which has lost its last two games, will be out to win at all costs and that The Strongest would try to play the most appropriate game. The La Paz team have collected three points, thanks to its 3-2 home victory against Argentine team Newell's Old Boys. Enditem
