When the clock ticked eight minutes in the match between the Colombian and Venezuelan national teams in Barranquilla, an unfortunate play ended with the coffee defender Santiago Arias off the pitch.
On a move down the left sector, Darwin Machís was carrying the ball when the teammate swept Charles Aránguiz getting hooked on the floor with his left leg.
The television images were shocking when the player’s left foot turned completely showing a fracture.
* This was the moment of Santiago Arias’ fracture, like the VAR review that took away the red card from the Venezuelan player.
Referee Guillermo Guerrero was carried away by the unfortunate injury and quickly expelled the Venezuelan, but the VAR helped him change his mind, something that was entirely fair because the llanero did not commit a fault right away, so the initial red card was rendered ineffective.
John Medina replaced Santiago Arias in the game that Colombia temporarily beat Venezuela 2-0.
Most likely, the defender will be the first coffee loss to face Chile at the National Stadium.
