The Pascual Guerrero stadium witnessed how América passed over its greatest rival, Deportivo Cali. With a great first half, the 15-time Colombian soccer champion won a new edition of the Valle del Cauca classic. Great game by Iago Falque and Carlos Darwin Quintero. The win was sentenced by Cristian Barrios with a double.
América knew what was at stake and went out to liquidate Deportivo Cali from the first moment. With the home run qualification very close, Alexandre Guimaraes’s team generated three clear goal options in the first 20 minutes, the last of which was to open the scoring.
After 2 minutes, Facundo Suárez finished off with his left foot entering the area and Kevin Dawson responded. At 15′, the Argentine reappeared with a wall with Carlos Darwin Quintero and the shot brushed the post. Finally, the 1-0 reached 20 minutes through Quintero following a pass from Iago Falque. He went hand in hand with the Uruguayan goalkeeper and defined him down with category.
The 2-0 was a great goal from Andrés Sarmiento (23′). Corner kick in favor of Deportivo Cali, rejection of the defense and quick exit in three touches to reach the rival goal with Edwin Velasco, who put a diagonal and then made the pass to the second sector where Sarmiento arrived with the whole panorama to define. Falque increased the difference following 39 minutes with a left-footed shot from medium distance that Dawson might not reach. 3-0 and party at Pascual.
Cali’s discount before the break
When América was closer to the fourth, in an isolated play Kevin Andrade committed a penalty once morest Kevin Viveros and thus gave Cali a discount. Diego Novoa saved Kevin Velasco’s charge, but the referee made him repeat it due to the goalkeeper’s overtaking. In the second attempt, the ’10’ did not fail and closed the first half with 3-1.
Cali proposed a little more in attack at the beginning of the second half, but did not generate clear options in Novoa’s goal. América controlled and managed its two-goal advantage, gave up the ball a bit, but without suffering in defense. Alexandre Guimaraes quickly refreshed the team with three changes in 20 minutes. At 64 ‘one of the best players of the night came out with an ovation, Carlos Darwin Quintero was replaced by Adrián Ramos.
Velasco discounts, but Barrios sentences for America
The 3-2 was in a take away ball action. Free kick on the edge of the area for Deportivo Cali that Velasco took advantage of with a great goal, he hit it hard but located in the upper right corner of Novoa. The goalkeeper barely saw her go by. The illusion of a tie for the visitor ended with the expulsion of Jefferson Díaz when he cut off a clear attack by Ramos with a free kick. Second yellow and to the locker room.
Everything was ruled in favor of América at 90′ and at 90+2′ with goals from Cristian Barrios, player who had entered in the second half for Sarmiento. Dawson failed in both plays and the ‘7’ took the opportunity to close the 5-2 rout in a completely red Pascual.
