Independiente Santa Fe hopes to define in its favor this Sunday’s match at Pascual Guerrero, in which it will face América de Cali in the first leg of the grand final of the 2020 BetPlay League. The cardinal has been the best team of the year according to the reclassification table, so he hopes to ratify his great campaign in the 180 minutes of the title dispute against the Scarlets.
Coach Harold Rivera had a week to get his players back and bring Cali to the best of his squad. The only one ruled out for days is Jonathan Herrera, who had been playing as a left back and has an injury that will not let him play again this year. To make matters worse, the other left back, Dairon Mosquera, had a muscle problem in the semifinal against La Equidad, which does not let him arrive for this first game of the final; That is why he did not travel to the capital of Valle del Cauca. This is how Dixon Renteria will be the left-handed back of Santa Fe.
The one who did recover and will surely be a first baseman will be Leandro Castellanos, although they will do a final test before the game to see if he arrives in optimal condition to compete. In any case, goalkeepers Omar Rodríguez and Juan Daniel Espitia are also called up.
In defense would be Carlos Mario Arboleda, Fáiner Torijano, Jeisson Palacios and Dixon Renteria; In attack, only Jorge Luis Ramos will be in the lead, and behind him, a line of five flyers, two of the brand and three of advanced.
Precisely, it is in the midfield where Harold Rivera would have the only doubt about his starting roster. Although Daniel Giraldo and Andrés Pérez will be in contention, two cardinal references will fight for a position within the eleven starters.
And it is that among the three attacking midfielders, one will remain: they trained first with a line with Fabián Sambueza, John Velásquez and Kelvin Osorio, the Argentine being a novelty, who paid a penalty date against Equidad and returns for the final. Another possibility is that Luis Manuel Seijas takes the position of Sambueza. Although it is almost certain that the Argentine will go, only up to an hour before the first game of the final will it be confirmed whether the ‘Chino’ or the Venezuelan plays.
