Deportivo Independiente Medellín drew 1-1 with Deportivo Pereira in play for the tenth date in the 2020 Colombian League. The powerful one was interesting in his game in the first half, but in the complementary stage he did not manage to close the match and finished with a point that it tastes like little. Bayron Garcés scored for the local and Rafael Navarro equalized for the visitor.
Medellín showed a better face with respect to its last games, being a team that pressed very high on the rival goal, while Pereira tried to dodge the mark, trying to attack on the wings. Both teams shared the possession of the ball and were not clear in the last third.
Pereira recovers the ball, but could not be deep. Medellín advanced and by means of medium distance shots he worried the goalkeeper Harlem Castillo, with more desire than precision.
On the next date, Independiente Medellín will visit La Equidad in Bogotá. Meanwhile, Deportivo Pereira meets Deportes Tolima at the Hernán Ramírez Villegas stadium.
At minute 25, Independiente Medellín generated the first chance of the match with a deep pass from Bayron Garcés to Leonardo Castro, who entered from the left sector, finishing off Castillo. On the rebound, Carlos Monges fired and Castillo returned to intervene with solvency.
The local was growing stronger on the opposite goal and showed the best minutes on his return to the competition. With good work from Garcés and Monges. Pereira defended himself as best he could and resorted to fouls to cut off his rival’s game.
At minute 34 and after a corner kick, José Estupiñán caught a rebound that ended in a goal, but the referee Luis Matorel canceled it due to a foul in attack and because Jesús Murillo obstructed goalkeeper Castillo’s vision.
On the 41st minute, Garcés finished from medium distance and the ball passed near the right corner of the north goal. The team from Matecaña did not have much reaction in their game and resorted to tactical fouls to lower the momentum of the DIM.
At minute 45 and after a deep pass from Javier Reina to Bayron Garcés, who received in the left sector and entering the area finished off with a right loss out of reach for goalkeeper Castillo, putting himself in front of the scoreboard for Medellín before the break, product of a good game on a confused Pereira.
In the complementary stage, Pereira made two variants: he took out Mateo Cano and Steven Manzano, to make way for Rafael Navarro and Mauricio Casierra. The visit was encouraged by Michael Ordoñez with a mid-distance shot that demanded Andrés Mosquera Marmolejo, being the first clear occasion in the ‘aurirojo’ team.
At minute 7, a collective play that began with an overflow from Wilfrido De la Rosa, gave the ball to Diego Álvarez who did not reach a finish, but decided to pass it to Rafael Navarro and the newly entered equalized the score with a powerful shot.
After the goal, Pereira got into the game, but at minute 12, goalkeeper Harlem Castillo touched his right leg and expressed discomfort, the visitor’s doctors came in to treat him, pausing the match for about two minutes.
The Risaraldense team took over the ball and played with the despair of the opponent, who extinguished his spark and dynamics, showing a face that had been evident in previous meetings. At minute 23, Pereira was encouraged and De la Rosa finished from medium distance, sending the ball very close to the right post of Andrés Mosquera Marmolejo.
It took 69 minutes for Aldo Bobadilla to make the first change for Medellín, removing Carlos Monges and entering Stiven Rodríguez. The ‘Titi’ had the second for the local after an overflow through the left sector, but could not define comfortably. At minute 27, Leonardo Castro headed in after a Jaime Giraldo cross from the left side, but the ball passed by centimeters from the goal of Matecaña.
Three minutes later, Medellín made two more changes; taking out Bayron Garcés who was one of the highlights in the first half, but who in the complement failed to shine and José Estupiñán, entering Edwin Mosquera and Juan Carlos Díaz, seeking a better balance and refreshing the attack. Pereira made his variations, was comfortable with the draw he achieved as a visitor and improved in the match.
In the end, Medellín failed to win after going ahead before the break, but failed to close the match and ended up showing a predictable and opaque game that it had already revealed in previous matches in both the Liga and the Copa Libertadores.
On the next date, Independiente Medellín visits in Bogotá, next Sunday to La Equidad. For its part, Deportivo Pereira receives Deportes Tolima at the Hernán Ramírez Villegas stadium.
