Strengthened, blended as a group and eager to stay on the triumphal path, those led by Luis Amaranto Perea will face Coquimbo Unido, from Chile, starting at 7:30 pm at the Roberto Meléndez Metropolitan Stadium, in the first leg match of the quarterfinals of the South American Cup.
After eliminating a very tough Unión La Calera, also from the southern country, the Sharks will try to beat the ‘Pirates’ in the ‘Metro’ and in the second leg at the Francisco Sánchez Rumoroso stadium, in Coquimbo, and access the semifinal of ‘The other half of glory’ for the third time in its history. He had already achieved it in 2017, when he fell in that instance against Flamengo, and in 2018, when he reached the final that he lost in definition by shots from the penalty spot against Atlético Paranaense).
To make matters worse, Junior registered ten positives for Covid-19 among its members, eight players and two members of the coaching staff.
Those eight infected join another player who in recent days tested positive and is isolated at home waiting to overcome the disease to rejoin the group.
Despite all those inconveniences that worry and somehow put the illusion at risk in the most definitive moment, Junior has to continue to show himself stronger and more united than ever.
