The Tiburonas won 3-2 and took the undefeated Independiente Santa Fe, but ended up eliminated in the quarterfinals of the Women’s League, yesterday afternoon at the Nemesio Camacho El Campín stadium, in Bogotá.
The capital squad had won the first leg 3-1 and emerged victorious in the aggregate result of the series 5-4.
Against most odds, the Women’s Junior defeated the ‘Leonas’, who were undefeated in the competition, with nine wins from nine matches.
After a minute of silence in memory of Diego Armando Maradona, the rojiblancas, defying the height of the capital, came out to play face to face with the best possible attitude.
However, Santa Fe took the lead in the 16 minute mark, through a great goal from Paraguayan Fany Gauto.
The felines showed their quality and kept visiting intentions at bay.
Junior’s girls were not discouraged and continued to fight to try to overcome the great resistance of local goalkeeper Daniela Solera.
When the first half was dying, Paola García achieved parity in the scoreboard.
Starting the second stage, just 7 minutes into the game, Santa Fe returned to go up with a header from Leivis Ramos.
It seemed all lost for the Tiburonas, but from that moment they began to get the best of themselves.
Yesica Caicedo, with a pair of touchdowns at 68 and 71 minutes of play, turned the score around.
There was only one ‘target’ left for the Tiburonas to equalize the series and force the definition by shots from the penalty spot.
Angie Castañeda was close to getting it a couple of times, but it didn’t happen.
