The scarlet team won 3-0 at Pascual Guerrero and took a huge step to achieve its 15th star.
It was not the best match of Santa Fe, if it was a great meeting for America, who knew how to take advantage of the mistakes of his rival, the mistakes in small details and thus take the advantage in the final of the Colombian league. The scarlet team won 3-0 at the Pascual Guerrero stadium and will travel to Bogotá with the tranquility of victory to try to maintain their advantage and obtain their 15th star next Sunday.
Although Santa Fe had the first clear action of the game, with a header from Dixon Renteria that crashed into the crossbar after Joel Graterol’s bad start, the first goal came in the other arc, in a quick play that culminated in a big way. Yesus Cabrera, who changed his leg and took an impossible left foot for Leandro Castellanos.
That goal gave the local confidence that he was able to increase the score in a fast and first-touch counterattack, which ended with the good definition of Luis Sánchez. However, the VAR, in a millimeter way, annulled everything due to an out of place of Adrián Ramos at the beginning of everything.
America, more intelligent, took advantage of the spaces, had the ball and sought to go down the wings to open the cardinal box. Already in the second half, as expected, Santa Fe risked more in the search for the discount, but it did not do so in an orderly manner and that was taken advantage of by the team led by Juan Cruz Real
First with the annotation that was born from a throw-in, from a moment of opportunism, from taking advantage of the opponent’s mistakes and knowing how to understand the moment. Cristian Arrieta took the Santa Fe area out of the wing, Yesus Cabrera did not finish well and the ball, slow, as in a kind of lethargy, received a touch from Duván Vergara, who increased the advantage.
And as if that were not enough, the scarlet club continued straight and in 78 ′, again appealing to speed, Santiago Moreno lowered a great change of front and defined crossed to overcome Castellanos and make this first duel a win in favor of the premises.
It may have been the worst match for a Santa Fe who looked very solid throughout the tournament, but this time he was nervous and made mistakes that cannot be forgiven in a final.
And on the other side, this may be the best presentation of America at home, and at what moment, the most valuable, for a club that took a great step to revalidate the title achieved last year.
