The BetPlay 2023-I League has left great sensations and with a good performance from the clubs that participate in the contest. One of them is, without a doubt, América de Cali, which has added two consecutive victories and eight goals in those two days. If you count the one that scored against Deportes Tolima on the first date, there are nine in three games played. The reality is that, if the club could sign, it would give something to talk about.
In América de Cali, the high level of Carlos Darwin Quintero, the scorer Facundo Suárez, as well as Andrés Sarmiento and Cristian Barrios are already beginning to excite the fans of the scarlet team and a former player such as Fabián Vargas who has already broadcast on ESPN maintained his joy with what the club led by Alexandre Guimaraes is showing.
Against Unión Magdalena at the Estadio Pascual Guerrero it was a real delight to see how Carlos Darwin Quintero got together with the entire attack front to be able to get it done and with the magic wand of Iago Falque who went crazy again with a beautiful free kick collection at background to put the third. A 4-0 in favor of the scarlets with which they claimed after the initial defeat against Deportes Tolima.

The next thing for América de Cali was a resounding 2-4 victory against Deportivo Pasto as a visitor with Carlos Darwin Quintero who again scored a goal in the Colombian league marking his return with assists and goals. However, it was difficult for him to play against Deportes Tolima on the first date and Unión Magdalena and the volcanoes could overcome them with authority. Without a doubt, the good moment of the Cali team is exciting, but is it hopeful as the fans say? Well, there are barely three days and those led by Alexandre Guimaraes have not faced Millonarios, Santa Fe, Nacional, Junior among others who are rivals of greater weight. That was precisely what the ESPN journalist Melissa Martínez criticized.
Melissa Martínez, who participates in the debate program, ESPN F360 like Fabián Vargas, began to talk about the moment that América de Cali is going through. Fabián, who played for the team from Cali and has a lot of affection and appreciation for the institution, began by saying, “I am happy and without worries, ‘la mechita’ flying, impressive. Happy fans of ‘la mecha'”.
Subsequently, Melissa Martínez responded by sowing doubt and lowering the fans from the cloud for the two victories against clubs that do not have as much recognition as the so-called greats of Colombia, “I like it when they beat Pasto and Unión Magdalena, and They already believe they are champions. I love that pod”. The comment immediately went viral on social networks with comments of all kinds, mostly refuting her opinion, precisely by followers of the Cali team.
