For three years, 2017-I, the two semi-finals of the Colombian League ended tied in their first leg matches. This happened with the first two games that will grant places to the grand final of the 2020 BetPlay League, which reflects the pairs that are the Equidad-Santa Fe and América-Junior keys.
Only one match had goals, and it was the most controversial referee. Tactical duels that will only be defined in the second leg games next weekend.
FUTBOLRED presents the highlights of the first leg of the semi-final.
The good
That the keys are open and there are no favorites, beyond the fact that Santa Fe and Junior close the premises thanks to their best performance in the year. There will be guaranteed excitement until the end.
The bad
Few goals, perhaps because the keys were very even, but more emotions were expected. In Bogotá, Santa Fe squandered the best options. In Cali, little chances of scoring between scarlets and sharks.
The ugly
Bismark Santiago doubted a lot and only the VAR saved him, since he approved Equidad’s goal when they had canceled it for a non-existent out of place. Worse, the referee even failed in his appreciation when the VAR warned him of a possible penalty for Santa Fe, which he denied. He expelled Sambueza leaving doubts.
The sad
Junior’s injuries: Teófilo Gutiérrez and Luis ‘Cariaco’ González left the Barranquilla team sad.
