The final whistle at the El Campín stadium, in the duel between Nacional and Millonarios, left a disappointment in the blue fans, players and the entire blue environment. Almost perfect match, from the approach, organization and game idea established and with solid foundations. However, the sin that condemned the blues, throughout the semester, was the definition.
Although it is true that Gamero’s men dominated in the all against all, they exhibited good football, eye-catching for the show and with the premise of going out to look for the result. This was stated by David Macallister Silva, captain of Millonarios, affirming that, in all the fields of the country, they went out to look for the result.
Establish a game model, style and build a team around this, it takes time, which the people of Bogota have gone through, but, with the failure in the hiring aspect, where the relays have not been the best. In Colombia the processes are not carried out as expected, in order to have results in the medium and long term. Although the blues have come a long way with Gamero, the results at a sporting level, from the aspect of titles, have been an outstanding debt, adding to the frustration of the fans.
In 2020, he failed to qualify for the playoff keys, settling for the Liguilla, to seek a place in international tournaments in 2021. There, he lost the definition against Deportivo Cali. Adding him in that first year, in the midst of the pandemic, which was also left out of the Copa Sudamericana.
By 2021, he reached the grand final in the first semester. Defeat against Tolima, in the midst of a complex context, where the lack of reinforcements, injuries, Covid infections, took their toll on a payroll that ended up being limited. In the Cup they were also left out. In the second semester they had offensive power, however, in the goal they did not have the necessary guarantees. All this took its toll on them and they stayed at the gates of the final.
Already this year, it was not only the elimination in the home runs of this League, but also in the Copa Libertadores, where they failed to advance from the second round, being eliminated by Fluminense. The Blues like and receive praise from their rivals, for their game and proposal on the field, despite this, they have not managed to make the leap that could ratify the Gamero process, with reinforcements that not only apprehend a game model, but also They can make a difference on the field.
