With three goals from Daniel Mantilla, Danovis Banguero and Giovanny Moreno, Atlético Nacional defeated Once Caldas, for the first leg of the Betplay Cup Round of 16.
The green did not want to have problems and that is why very early, following five minutes, Mantilla, from mid-distance, finished off to beat goalkeeper Éder Chaux.
And before the rival might react, Danovis Banguero widened the difference, at 10 minutes so that the more than 16,000 fans who arrived at the Atanasio in the second hour might celebrate on a cold and rainy night.
In the second half, in the first touch of the ball it was Giovanny Moreno, who would celebrate the third, also with a powerful shot that the visiting goalkeeper might not contain.
The magician was the best player on the field, because with his talent and ability he always led the strings of the green that generated many goal options, some of them closed by Chaux and others due to lack of precision in the last touch of the locals.
Coach Hernán Darío Herrera decided to rest Moreno, Dorlan and Andrade, who will surely be in the next duel, on Saturday, once more once morest Once Caldas, but this time for the Betplay League.
