América de Cali was looking for a victory against Millonarios in Pascual Guerrero that would ensure it in the quarterfinals and that would leave the Albiazul cast without any option.
However, he was less than commitment and was overcome by a rival whose improvement is serious, with a practical and effective operation, despite the absences of important men. In short, the Albiazul collective weighed more than the few skirmishes that the local cast tried at times.
With his weak performance, he went unbeaten on 9 dates in the League, and on Thursday (8:00 pm) he will visit Cúcuta in Armenia in search of at least one point that will give him the tranquility of the classification.
This is how FUTBOLRED analyzes the presentation of the ‘devils’ in their defeat against the capital’s team:
Lower and without clear proposal: Although it is true that at the beginning the game did not have greater arrivals to the goal, after 15 minutes it was Millonarios who took possession of the ball and imposed his best order on the court.
He returned to defensive errors: Another weak presentation of the medullary block and the scarlet posterior quartet, which were surpassed on many occasions by the Albiazules. The action of the second goal, scored by Eliser Quiñones in spare time, was very similar to another in the 67th minute in which Mackalister finished off wide on the left post.
Quiñones appeared without a mark and barely had to touch the ball to beat Joel Graterol, decreeing the lace.
Bad collective performance: It is no secret to anyone that America depends too much on what Duván Vergara does, and when the Monterrey winger disappears, the offensive power of the Colombian champion is ostensibly reduced. Duván only had two shots on goal, a figure too low for a player of his stature, and he also did not gravitate with his usual actions of change of pace.
Besides, the generation of offensive play was low, because Rafael Carrascal and Yesus Cabrera were far from what a team that must impose conditions at home needs.
Gamero’s strategy surpassed that of Cruz Real: The balance was unbalanced by the Albiazul coach with his approach and movements on the court. He arrived with several casualties, including those of his central defenders, and he really handled the aerial balls very well, to the point that Adrián Ramos could never overcome Andrés Llinás and Breiner Paz.
Similarly, its steering wheel sector made a difference and the attack generated imbalances in the scarlet rear from minute 15.
Little presence in attack: America returned to the days when it looked light and inconsequential in attack, predictable and without many variants to find the formula to overcome the resistance of Juan Moreno. Bad performances by John Arias, Duván Vergara and Adrián Ramos, who succumbed to a well stopped defense.
