Águilas tried to defend himself, while looking for some carelessness of the DIM to discount the score. For the locals, it was practically a training session with the public, the game was over and they were just waiting for the referee to finish the match.
On the next date, Independiente Medellín will face Atlético Nacional in the Antioquia classic. While Águilas Doradas receives Envigado in Rionegro.
