The cardinal claw was present in El Campín. First win in group G of the Cup.
Independiente Santa Fe defeated Gimnasia y Esgrima de La Plata 2-1, in a match on day 2 of the 2023 Conmebol Sudamericana Cup. In a game with grit and desire, the cardinal was always closer to winning, but he had to suffer, as usual, to get a big win despite having ten men, due to the irresponsible expulsion of Fabián Sambueza.
The figure was Hugo Rodallega, who brought out his goalscoring caste to score the winning goal, in the death throes of the game.
11,186 red-and-white fans suffered at the El Campín stadium in Bogotá, as their team played a game with a lot of drive, but with serious lack of concentration; but then they shouted and celebrated with everything, because their team took three important points in the development of the competition.
The first half started better for the red-and-white, but little by little he was losing ground and Gymnastics began to do damage. And around minute 41 came the goal of the Argentine team, the work of Alan Lescano.
Santa Fe came out with a lot of faith for the second half, knowing that his push and that of the fans might turn the game around. And at minute 57 a special goal came, not only because it was the 1-1 tie, but because it was scored by Kevin Mantilla, a home-made defender and U-20 figure.
Santa Fe tried to win the game from then on and did pretty much everything to take all three points.
At minute 90, while Santa Fe was preparing to take a free kick, there was a problem in the Gimnasia barrier and Fabián Sambueza committed an attack that cost him the expulsion. The red card came following a VAR review and the Ecuadorian referee Guillermo Guerrero did not hesitate.
The cardinal won the game at minute 90+6′, with Jersson González overflowing on the right and left it to Hugo Rodallega to score the winning goal.
