Nacional’s coach, Alejandro Restrepo, ended his relationship with the Antioquia clubThis was announced this Tuesday by the purslane cast through a statement.
The coach’s relationship with the fans had deteriorated in recent days, above all, after the result of the first leg of the Libertadores phase-2, the 3-1 defeat against Olimpia.
In addition, the fall, by the same score, against Bucaramanga in the League with a team full of youth did not help him either. In that same game, he had an awkward situation with the goalkeeper Aldair Quintana, who after an error in the first half did not come out to play the complementary stage. The technician said that what happened was left in the dressing room.
The coach leaves on the eve of the second leg, this Thursday (7:30 pm) at the Atanasio, against the Olimpia, in which it is expected that the Antioquian team can trace the score.
Restrepo directed 44 games with a balance of 23 wins, 12 draws and 9 losses.
Hernán Darío “Arriero” Herrera will assume the technical direction of the squad on an interim basis and his first great challenge will be the duel of the Libertadores.
