To make history as a coach in the FPC you have to lift titles, and in this final, there will be a new DT champion. This Sunday, at the El Campín stadium, Santa Fe receives América de Cali for the second leg of the 2020 League final, in which the scarlet team arrives with the advantage of three goals on aggregate, waiting of the approach of the cardinals, who dream of the comeback.
Both Cruz Real and Rivera are two technicians who went from less to more in Colombian professional football, and that is why the title of this atypical year will leave a new champion on the list of strategists who have established themselves in Colombia. .
Harold rivera
At 50, Harold Rivera, a former Colombian footballer, is one game away from lifting his first title in the first division of the Colombian League. The coach dreams of the feat of coming back from a difficult 3-0 suffered in the first game.
Rivera arrived at the cardinal team in August 2019 at a difficult time for the institution. However, as a result of his good work, he overcame adversity and put the lion in the top positions of the championship. In 2020, Santa Fe finished as the leader of the all against all with 40 points, thus being the best team of the regular season.
With a past in Patriotas, Atlético Bucaramanga, and Unión Magdalena (he got promoted), the strategist will seek his first title, as DT, in the first division of Colombia this Sunday.
Juan Cruz Real
On the other side of the coin is Juan Cruz Real. Born in Argentina, the ex-footballer who had a fleeting stint for Millonarios in 1998 is 90 minutes away from claiming his first title as manager.
To the surprise of many, Cruz Real managed to consolidate a team amid strong criticism for his arrival. With perseverance and sacrifice, the 44-year-old strategist led the scarlet team to a new FPC final and is very close to the two-time championship and the 15th star.
After passing through Alianza Petrolera and Jaguares, the gaucho strategist is excited about the League title, and despite the fact that the level with which his team qualified for the playoffs was not the best, he managed to lead América de Cali to the last instance of the national championship. He is excited about the trophy.
