Junior’s left-back, Gabriel Fuentes, started the Betplay League 2021-II with his left foot. He was expelled against América de Cali, in full debut, after an elbow against Chilean Rodrigo Ureña. It was not only that. His team fell apart with his departure.

In addition, it was the fifth time that he saw the direct red. The last time he left his team with one less was four months ago, when the shark received Santa Fe for date 15.
