After a week with much controversy due to the change of venue for the second leg, Deportes Tolima and Atlético Junior will finally define this Sunday, the pass to the semi-final of the League, at the Estadio Metropolitano de Techo.
The advantage in the series is for the sharks, thanks to the fact that in the first leg, Miguel Ángel Borja gave the victory to Amaranto Perea’s men with a solitary goal in the Metropolitano.
The rojiblancos arrive at the height of Bogotá with the inflated shirt, after beating the Pijaos at home by 1-0, and beating Unión La Calera, in the first leg of the round of 16 of the South American Cup 2-1 . However, they know that the change of stadium can work against the weather conditions, in addition to the fatigue accumulated by a tight schedule.
“I would have liked to play on a field with conditions similar to those of Ibagué, but if Dimayor decides that we play in Bogotá, we will go there with the intention of seeking classification,” said Perea at a press conference.
Junior accumulates five games without losing as a visitor, so he hopes to ratify this good streak in the country’s capital.
On the other hand, Deportes Tolima, which will be local in Bogotá, will seek the feat this Sunday at 8:00 pm in Techo, to meet the objective of getting into a new final phase of the League.
The team led by Hernán Torres comes at a disadvantage, but they have the intact faith that they can reverse the situation. The Pijaos are in sport decline, after carrying out an exceptional free-for-all campaign.
“They are three games in a row (with defeat), but we came from a run of 15 games … This is football and this is a game, as such we must continue working and fighting for the goal, there are 90 minutes left of this game.”
“We played a good game, the difference of a goal is a good result on the road, we made the necessary wear and we have high expectations for our home game,” concluded the Vinotinto y oro strategist.
