Two days after coach Aldo Bobadilla was fired from the team, Independiente Medellín remembered to win, although they did so too late. The Paisa team defeated Caracas of Venezuela 2 to 0 as a visitor and achieved their first three points in the group stage of the Copa Libertadores.
The ‘mighty of the mountain’ was one of the three clubs that had lost all their matches in the tournament, but finally ended that bad streak. In any case, the victory will not prevent him from saying goodbye to the tournament in the last place of his group, since the Venezuelans and Libertad from Paraguay have 7 points and will define on the last date who qualifies for the round of 16 and who goes to the Copa Sudamericana as the third in the area.
The paisas won with goals from Leonardo Castro and Jesús Murillo, at minutes 58 and 66 respectively.
The other noteworthy note of the meeting is that Caracas suffered the expulsion of three players, the first at minute 19 and the remaining two between 70 and 80. The Venezuelans reached the end of the game with only eight footballers on the playing field.
Medellín should focus entirely on the Colombian league, a tournament in which it is out of the eight classified. This Sunday he will face La Equidad in Bogotá, for the 11th date of the championship and he needs to win yes or yes so as not to get hung up on the fight for a place in the final home runs.
