The unexpected protagonist of the meeting was the Santafesino winger Federico Verawho scored his first two goals in the First Division, one for and one against, with a difference of four minutes.
Union, directed by Gustavo Munuasought victory from the beginning against a Junior who took refuge with nine footballers in his field and left the experienced Miguel Borgia to fight with the defenders “tatengues”.
So the game came out stuck, with friction and shoving and ended with two expelled and a large number of warnings.
Junior, Directed by the Argentine Juan Cruz Real, he put together a line of five defenders with three central defenders (Castrillón, Rosero and Arias), plus two full-backs who had to come and go.
The solidity, however, did not last long for the visitor, because Peralta Bauer put in a good center, the goalkeeper see clearance cut and the ball came to Vera, who hit him almost “drag” and passed between many legs to get into the Colombian goal.
But a few minutes later the Colombian central arias put in a precise long pass to Fuentes, who broke up the very in-line attempt to play offside by the defenders of Union, overflowed and put the center back that Vera pushed towards her own fence.
Real he bet on precision in the long passes of his central defenders to the full-backs and forwards, Borja and González, and in this way skip the midfielder with a good foot arranged by Munúa.
After the Colombian tie, Unión lowered the initial vertigo and ordered the marks, while Junior waited behind pressing when the “Tate” approached the Viera area.
At 25m in a side kick Cabrera and González crossed paths, Borja resorted to all his mischief to “sting” the match and the incident changed the first half, because Unión got tangled up.
at 40m Luis Gonzalez he put a pass between the lines to Borgia, that got rid of Vera, defined from a closed angle and crashed it into the crossbar. Later Union went and Viera answered.
At the beginning of the second half, Real changed the reprimanded players and sought to reinforce their presence in their field and once again leave Borja alone fighting against the four local defenders.
And the defensive posture of the Barranquilleros deepened at 9m when the Venezuelan Luis González was sent off. But Unión did not know how to take advantage of it and on top of that Gastón González, one of his figures, saw a red card for an innocent foul.
As the minutes passed, Junior’s stinginess was reinforced, with almost all his players in his field, while Unión sought to enter a very well-structured defensive lock.
Over added time, Unión ran out of legs and ideas and Junior repeated the formula and made two long passes for the speedy Fuentes and Cetré, who were about to give the Colombians too big a prize.
