Atlético Junior is the only Colombian team that is still alive internationally. This Thursday, in a hard game, he qualified for the quarterfinals of the 2020 South American Cup by eliminating Unión La Calera: he lost the game 2-1, the key was tied 3-3, but on penalties he won 2-4.

A goal from Miguel Borja, at 24 seconds, excited Junior with calmly passing the round of 16 series, but it was only an illusion. The curramba team began to manage the advantage and had a very good face in the first minutes. However, it failed to increase the difference and was losing prominence and dominance of commitment. La Calera drew strength and was raising the commitment in his own way.

When the first half ended, at 45 minutes, Fernando Cordero managed to tie for the Chilean team and again gave the key anguish, which at that time was 3-2 for the shark.

And things got tighter and more suffered for Junior at 59 ‘, when Juan Leiva scored 2-1 for Unión la Calera and tied the key 3-3.

Then came the debacle and irresponsibility. At 85 ‘Teófilo Gutiérrez was expelled, in a play in which he has no excuse and left Junior with ten. And to top it all, after 90 minutes they took Larry Vásquez red, for aggression, so that the shark ended up with nine men and held until the penalties were forced.
