match development:
Medellín and Tolima played a very orderly match at the Atanasio and ended up drawing. The few clear actions occurred in the initial stage.
The locals first caused concern with a mid-range shot from Diber Cambindo and then answered the visit with a shot from outside the box by Andrés Ibargüen.
Subsequently, both teams showed good defensive work, closing the spaces and cutting the passing circuits to avoid offensive incursions.
In the second half, more of the same was seen, a game that went from side to side, although with inaccuracies in the last quarter of the field by the 2 teams.
However, the goal appeared in the last minutes and went to the ‘red mountain’ through Felipe Pardo, who came from the bench, made a foul and from that action opened the scoring after a series of rebounds.
In the end, Medellin managed to keep the 3 points in a very close game and will now get ready to visit Patriotas, while Tolima could not add and will prepare to face Cali on Valle del Cauca soil.
