On the penultimate day of Colombian football, Águilas Doradas visited Boyacá Chicó in La Independencia de Tunja. The Rionegro team arrived with the need for a victory to continue fighting for a place within eight, while the locals, already eliminated, must add due to relegation issues.
In the first minutes of the game, Chicó sought to impose conditions from aerial balls looking for his tips: Jean Carlos Blanco and Diego Echeverri.
Águilas, meanwhile, came with the need to win to continue in the fight to qualify for the eight. In this sense, they appealed to medium-distance shots. Christian Marrugo and Jhon Fredy Salazar were the protagonists.
Precisely the first clear option of the game would arrive at 30 minutes. Óscar Hernández filtered a great pass for Andres Renteria who controlled inside the area, eluded the rival goalkeeper and defined at will.
With the advantage on the scoreboard, Francesco Stifano’s men were careful in defense and sought to attack only with quick counterattacks from empty balls from Aldo Leao Ramírez or Marrugo.
Once the second half started, Jader Obrian had a very clear opportunity to sentence the game in favor of Águilas. In a counterattack, he gained speed over his marker, ran with total freedom and when he wanted to finish, goalkeeper Rogerio Caicedo managed to send the ball to the corner kick.
At 56 minutes, Renteria managed to do what Obrian couldn’t. The ex-Nacional gained a deep ball in speed and defined between Caicedo’s legs. Double for the forward.
The local team, with nothing to lose, went out looking for the discount and would have a prize at 68 ‘. Geimer Balanta wanted to head inside the rival area, but the ball hit Obrian’s arm. Although Mario Herrera did not sanction anything, from the VAR they asked him to review the play.
Captain Camilo Pérez took charge of the charge and scored with a powerful shot to the center. Well executed.
With the goal against, Águilas waited patiently and managed to cool down the game thanks to the fight, the friction and the physical duels. Chicó paid dearly for his lack of ideas and creativity.
In the end it would be a very important victory for Francesco Stifano’s team, who has 28 units and will fight to the last drop in the defining day of all against all.
