Junior from Barranquilla achieved a historic victory this Saturday in the classic once morest Unión Magdalena. The sharks left no room for doubt and achieved victory with an impressive 7-1 that goes directly into the golden books of this regional rivalry.
On the other hand, the situation becomes even more critical following this defeat. Unión Magdalena cannot get out of the relegation zone and will now have to fight once morest the criticism of its own fans, who do not forgive such an overwhelming fall once morest the classic rival.
The frustration was reflected on the faces of the players and the coaching staff of Harold Rivera, who ‘wobbles’ in his position despite being in seventh position in the championship with the complement of date 10 missing.

The official Unión Magdalena account did not even want to notify its rival’s seven goals and only reappeared hours following the match to publicly denounce what happened on the way to the locker room following the final whistle.
“In an act of intolerance inside the tunnel, when the team was preparing to enter the dressing room, Junior’s physical trainer, Percy Moncada, punched our physical trainer José Micciulli in the face,” the Samario club published.
The Unión complaint includes a couple of photos in which the wound on the cheekbone and lip that the member of the coaching staff was left with is evident. “It is important to highlight that the aggressor carried out his action from behind and immediately ran to take refuge inside the dressing room,” added Ciclón.
This accusation might be investigated ex officio by the Dimayor disciplinary committee, which is awaiting details in the report of the referee and the delegates. “At Unión Magdalena SA we make this situation public with the firm intention that these types of actions are not repeated,” the statement completes.

Harold Rivera regretted the result
Rivera, in fact, assured that he will work to stay in the first division, a task that becomes more difficult with the passing of the games. “Junior took advantage of rebounds and centers. The last goal was a product of the emotions that this type of heavy defeat generates. When I arrived in Santa Marta I knew it wasn’t easy, but I’m not going to make light of this, because it is an uncomfortable result. Let them continue to believe, we are going to correct and we have to lift our heads because on Thursday we have to play another final,” he said.
In the middle of the week, Unión will visit Águilas Doradas, one of the teams in the best shape in the championship. “They scored a cue goal once morest us that they can’t score once morest us. We have to be aggressive in the area. I am the first to criticize myself, I will have to correct and look, but I am responsible for this defeat,” lamented Rivera, who will sit down in the next few hours with the managers to make decisions.
