As of the 24th of January, fourteen Latin American countries divided in two leagues will be fighting to reach the top in the 5th Pandanet Go Latin American Team Championship.

Novelty in this season is Cuba playing in the League A and standing as a strong competitor for the Championship as their top 3 boards rank as 5 dan and the team has an average level of 3 dan.

Meantime in the League B, we also find a strengthened Uruguay with the recent incorporation of Martin Benenati 5d, which projects a very fought scenario with Chile and Venezuela also trying to fight their way back to the League A.

Showdown starts as soon as the first round with heavy matches like Argentina vs Mexico, who last season finished second and fourth respectively and Brazil vs Peru who finished first and third respectively.

Follow the 1st round of the Championship on Sunday 24th at 19 hrs GMT-6 on the LatinAmericanTeam Champ room in Pandanet.

Brazil wins the 4th Pandanet Go Latin American Team Championship

Brasil flag

On a hard fought match, Brazil overcame Argentina to become the champion of the 4th PGLATC.

Of the three games played, the first one to finish was third board match between Brazil’s Helcio Alexander and Argentina’s Luciano Salerno. While Salerno kept the lead throughout most of the game, a latter invasion proved too deep which gave the victory to Alexander.

Later on, the second board finished with a large point victory for Brazil’s Wang Sen Feng over Argentina’s Santiago Tabares.

At last, the first board finished with a victory of Argentina’s Fernando Aguilar over Israelian-Brazilian Amir Fragman, in a game with plenty of fighting and group exchanging.

So the result is a 2-1 victory for Brazil. Congratulations!

Kifus of the games:board 1, board 2, board 3.
