Patience has run out and the poor results, once more, will be the condemnation of another Colombian soccer coach.
This time the decision affects Independiente Santa Fe and his coach, Argentine Martín Cardetti, who came to office on December 1, 2021.
It has been five months in which he was able to do the complete preseason work, he had 11 signings and, although he had a promising start, he was unable to consolidate a constant performance. He still has seven months left on his contract, an issue that has already been settled with him and his coaching staff.
The straw that broke the cup was the recent 2-1 loss in the classic once morest Millonarios, which left the team in 11th place in the table with 22 units, two behind the eighth that Bucaramanga is today, but with a difficult schedule in the last three dates to achieve the quota: Jaguares at home and Deportivo Cali and Once Caldas (seventh) as visitors.
Cardetti signs a campaign of six wins, four draws and seven losses, with the mole of 23 goals for and 23 once morest, which makes clear a significant imbalance, which has the team very committed in its aspiration to reach the next phase of the league. It must be recognized that physical problems and expulsions affected him, which limited the task of putting together the payroll from date to date. After managing Bogotá FC, Santa Fe was the manager’s first experience in a big team.
It is noteworthy that Cardetti arrived when Grigori Méndez, manager in charge following the departure of Harold Rivera, had won a Superliga title and had led the team until the end of last season with the option of qualifying.
In the next few hours the departure would be made official, at a critical moment for the cardinal club.
