The decision was announced by the Court of Arbitration for Sport, CAS, on the morning of this Wednesday, November 20, a few hours before the start of the FPC semi-final phase.
As will be remembered, the ‘Poderoso’ reported that they appealed resolution 010 of 2024 issued by the Dimayor Disciplinary Commission, in which 3 points were awarded to Junior FC de Barranquilla “without any regulatory basis.”
The DIM’s complaint is because granting those points to Junior “left us out of the final stages of the competition,” the statement says.
In the process before the CAS, the People’s Team requested that the BetPlay League semi-final home run be suspended as a precautionary measure.
The semifinals start with América de Cali, Santa Fe, Millonarios, Pasto, Atlético Nacional, Junior, Tolima and Once Caldas, this Wednesday, November 20.
The TAS said no to the DIM
Faced with the request, which put the final instance of Colombian Football at risk, the CAS spoke out.
In its decision, the Court of Arbitration for Sports resolves that the “request for precautionary measures (…) in the TAS 2024/All 1007 procedure is rejected.”
The cost that this action will have for the DIM will be known only at the time of the final decision of the international organization.
In that sense, the DIM request will advance, as well as the home runs, and it is expected that in a few months, it will be known what the organization will decide on the matter and in substance.
The DIM’s decision to present the appeal to the CAS after an event that occurred on September 26 was described by some of its own fans as ‘drowning legs’.
For now, Independiente Medellín lost that first match, so the Millonarios against Pasto and Atlético Nacional against Santa Fe matches, tonight, can be played normally.

What criteria does the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) use to evaluate appeals like DIM’s against decisions made by regulatory commissions in Colombian soccer?
**Interview with Juan Pérez, Sports Analyst, on DIM’s Appeal to CAS**
**Interviewer:** Juan, thank you for joining us today. The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) recently dismissed Deportivo Independiente Medellín’s (DIM) appeal to suspend the semi-finals of Colombian soccer. Can you explain the background of this situation?
**Juan Pérez:** Absolutely, thank you for having me. DIM appealed to the CAS regarding a controversial decision made by the Dimayor Disciplinary Commission, which awarded three points to Junior FC after certain incidents during a match. DIM argued that this decision was “without any regulatory basis” and claimed it effectively eliminated them from the final stages of the BetPlay League.
**Interviewer:** What were DIM’s main arguments in this appeal?
**Juan Pérez:** DIM’s primary argument was that the points awarded to Junior were unjust and significantly affected their standings in the league. They felt that they should have been competing in the semi-finals instead of Junior, and they sought a precautionary measure to suspend the ongoing league semi-finals while the appeal was considered [[1](https://www.minuto30.com/esto-se-sabe-tras-la-demanda-del-dim-ante-el-tas/1637943/)].
**Interviewer:** What implications does the CAS decision have for the current tournament?
**Juan Pérez:** With the CAS decision being announced just before the semi-finals commenced, it means that the tournament will continue as planned with teams like América de Cali, Santa Fe, Millonarios, and others competing. This could also set a precedent for how disciplinary issues are handled in the future. For DIM, it’s a tough break and raises questions about the regulatory process in Colombian soccer.
**Interviewer:** Considering the competitive nature of the league, how might this decision impact DIM’s strategy moving forward?
**Juan Pérez:** DIM will need to reassess their strategies, especially their performance and compliance with regulations. They might also look into strengthening their legal and administrative frameworks to avoid similar issues in the future. It’s crucial for them to focus on their gameplay to ensure they qualify for future tournaments without relying on external factors like appeals.
**Interviewer:** Thank you, Juan, for your insights on such a pressing issue in Colombian soccer.
**Juan Pérez:** Thank you for having me. It’s always a pleasure to discuss the dynamics of our local sports scene.
