See analysis of Millonarios vs Deportes Tolima for the leadership BetPlay League Date 19 | Colombian Soccer | Betplay League

Deportes Tolima traveled to Bogotá with the need to beat a direct rival like Millonarios at the top and in search of the lead alone. With an excellent defense made up of Julián Quiñones and José David Moya, they managed to hold the scoreless draw.

At an offensive level, Hernán Torres put the gamers with Daniel Cataño and Andrés Ibargüen who took over the risk actions. Michael Rangel scored a goal clearly offside, and also missed a more than clear play when the tandem between Ibargüen and Junior Hernández came together. With the goalless draw, everything remained as it began. Shared leadership, but Tolima at the top.

In FUTBOLRED we analyze the draw of Deportes Tolima in Bogotá:

Excellent defensive work: Especially in the first half, Tolima was careful not to allow large spaces, knowing the importance of Daniel Ruiz in his football and Richard Celis on the left. Brayan Rovira and Juan David Ríos cut in the spinal cord as well as José David Moya and Julián Quiñones with a very iron work against the centers of Celis and company.

Great tandem on the left: Hernán Torres put the gamers in midfield with Daniel Cataño in the center, Luis Miranda on the right, and Andrés Ibargüen on the left, who was the key player in the first half. His mobility and speed caused havoc, also teaming up with Junior Hernández, a versatile winger in that area.

A collective game by that band made a party for the youth squad Ricardo Rosales who, when he pressed high, the sagacity of Andrés Ibargüen playing taco with Junior Hernández was key. In one action, Hernández sent a perfect cross to the arrival of Michael Rangel who took a shot over the crossbar.

Andrés Ibargüen, the perfect partner: after playing in the left zone in the first half, Ibargüen went through all the zones in the complement. He went off the left side, and got involved in the actions in the middle of the field connecting with Daniel Cataño, and sometimes he dived to the right wing creating danger. The departure of Luis Miranda at 38 minutes and the entry of Yohandry Orozco allowed this positional change between the Colombian-Venezuelan and the Caleño.

William Cuesta responded in a great way: against Daniel Ruiz, and Richard Celis, who were the ones who most tried to finish off the goal, the goalkeeper had a late night with a very high level. He appeared in the shots of Millonarios when the ambassadors were most concerned, just as he was attentive to get a difficult whiplash from Omar Bertel in the complement.

Tolima at the top: The Tolimenses have not fallen in El Campín against Millonarios since February 2017. 13 games without defeat against the ambassadors, and by maintaining equality, everything remained as the date began. Those of Hernán Torres and those of Alberto Gamero add 39 units, but the advantage lies with the pijaos due to the goal difference in the first box.
