Cali was the one who had the obligation to go out and look for the three points, but they did not have a very clear chance, at least in the first half, while Boyacá Chicó was the one who most worried the goal to score, but they were not fortunate in the definition .
Although the sugar miller could not score in Tunja, the other results were coming in, but they felt threatened by Alianza Petrolera’s victory over Pereira, since they were winning 2-1 at that time and Jaime de la Pava’s team looked more in control. the obligation to go for victory.

The entry of Teófilo Gutiérrez generated a scramble in Cali’s scheme and in the first time he had, he generated a dangerous option, but goalkeeper Rogerio Caicedo took a clear ball to prevent the sugar bowl’s goal.
Chicó wanted to leave their field and attack Cali, but they were unable to do any damage, while Cali had an increase in their level, although with the other results the same, the visit remained in the home run qualifiers.
When everything seemed like the game was going to end goalless and Cali was going to qualify, in the 85th minute Boyacá Chicó’s goal suddenly appeared, Tamara being the one who was burying the sugar mill’s illusions.
However, when the game was dying down, Teófilo Gutiérrez made a masterful pass to Luis Sandoval and ‘Chino’ scored 1-1 to leave the sugar bowl classified for home runs.
Finally, the match was tied 1-1 and Deportivo Cali ended up sealing its classification among the best in Colombia, finishing in eighth position with 28 points.
