Although he could not develop what he had done in his recent commitments, América de Cali underwent a tough test this Wednesday in his visit to Junior for the fifth date of the 2020 BetPlay League.
The 1-1 draw in the Metropolitan was apparently just in the 98 minutes of the game, because although it is true that Junior was superior in the beginning and scored the advantage goal, in addition to producing at least two more arrivals with danger , then the red team took the ball and in the second half shot it was also close to taking the three points.
There is no doubt that the result gives him motivation to face Nacional in Medellín on Sunday, October 18 (6:05 .m.), In the most attractive match on date 15, although there are details to be reviewed by the coaching staff.
These were the high and low points of the cast directed by Juan Cruz in his comparison with Junior:
The imbalance of Duván Vergara: He is the clearest player in the champion’s scaffolding and he ratified it in the Metropolitan, not only with a beautiful definition on the side in which he performs the most, but with the always risky presence on junior ground.
A point to keep growing: Equality represents a good booty for the Valle del Cauca team, since apart from having done it against one of the best-formed squads of the championship, it leaves the red fifth with 23 units.
Bad first half: America allowed the cast ‘shark’ to get on top of him and this time he did not press high, so the most frequent arrivals were from the premises. This is how Junior found the advantage goal with ‘Cariaco’ González, although fortunately Vergara conquered parity in that same period after a good qualification from Carlos Cortés Barreiro.
Moments of confusion: Although the final scoreboard reports a division of honors, America did not pass it during several passages due to the way in which Junior submitted it in defense, revealing a posterior quartet and a medullary line that did not manage to recover the ball.
Bad deliveries: That is a point that Juan Cruz Real should review with his team, because they have cost him goals against or plays of enormous danger. On this occasion it was Jhon Arias who made a mistake in a pass just starting the game and luckily for the ‘devils’ Miguel Borja did not know how to take advantage.
Vergara’s insistence on the right: It is no secret to anyone that Duván’s best performances have been on the left, so that he can take advantage of his profile changed in speed and then hook inwards and define, but coach Juan Cruz started with him again on the right, losing important minutes against a Junior who was more in those moments. On the left he converted the scarlet tie goal.
