match development

The first part had a single owner: Independiente Santa Fe. Those led by Alfredo Arias had all the options to go up on the scoreboard and between Graterol and the lack of aim, America’s goal remained zero. The high pressure of the ‘cardinal’ cast forced the ‘scarlet’ team to retreat several meters and they could not get out of the siege. Only in some passages did they manage to get out of the pressure and tried to send crosses to Adrián Ramos, but the balls did not reach the scorer cleanly.

However, in the only dangerous play that América had with a free kick from the side, he made Sierra anticipate his mark and hit a clean header to beat Leandro Castellanos that he could not do anything to stop the auction and America went to the locker room with the minimum advantage.

In the second half, the team led by Alexandre Guimaraes tried to propose more and to have possession of the ball, although the script remained practically the same as in the first half with a rather offensive attitude from Santa Fe, highlighting Neyder’s good play Moreno, who always tried to score, either from mid-distance or in collective plays. Santa Fe tied the match in the 64th minute through José Aja, who won an aerial duel and sent the ball to save.

The other great figure of the commitment was the goalkeeper Graterol, who took out all kinds of balls and avoided the second fall of his goal. In the end, the game ended in a draw, with Santa Fe deserving a little more, but football is measured in goals and both teams did not go beyond 1-1.

On the next date, Santa Fe will visit Pereira and America will receive Águilas Doradas.
