Ecuador LigaPro 2026 – Macará third, IDV leads

Entities: Orense Sporting Club · Aucas · Franco Posse · Estadio 9 de Mayo · Matías Perelló

Overview

Macará’s 4‑1 away victory over Aucas on 26 July lifted the club to third place with 35 points, overtaking Aucas on goal difference. The win kept Macará in the race for a hexagonal qualification spot, while Aucas, now under interim coach Maximiliano Bevacqua, remained in the same zone despite the loss.

Independiente del Valle extended its dominance in the Serie A by beating Orense Sporting Club 3‑2 at the Estadio 9 de Mayo on the same day. The triumph moved IDV to the top of the table with 55 points, reinforcing its lead while Orense lingered in 12th place with 26 points.

Transfer news saw 36‑year‑old right‑back Romario Caicedo terminate his contract with Emelec and sign for Guayaquil City. Both Barcelona SC and Emelec were reported to be pursuing forward Daniel Valencia of América de Cali. Deportivo Cuenca announced the resignation of sporting director Damián Manso after 44 days, with internal staff covering his duties and a new technical team led by Daniel Neculman taking charge.

These developments keep both the title race and the mid‑table contest tight as the season approaches its final stage.
