Once Caldas and Atlético Nacional, the two Copa Libertadores champions that Colombia has, were not hurt in the opening duel of both in the Betplay-2 League that took place this Sunday at the Palogrande stadium in Manizales.

The 1-1 draw was a good prize for the purslane, now led by the Brazilian William Amaral, after a match in which the locals did more for the victory.

This was stated by striker Dayro Moreno, author of the goal for the albo team and figure of the match, who ended up with a cut on his face: “I didn’t like the result, we lacked more definition, but the important thing was that it was not lost. We knew he was a tough opponent.”

In Nacional, which had Neyder Moreno (he scored the equalizer) and Kevin Mier as the most important men, the lack of a creative and a number 9 became very evident, as Dorlan Pabón and Jéfferson Duque looked low in level.

The ’10’ is ready (the Uruguayan Maximiliano Cantera) and the club is expected to announce the scorer soon.

that was the game

Dayro Moreno and Neyder Moreno spiced up the game at the end of the first half, in a duel that until then lacked emotions despite the enthusiasm that the teams put in at the start in Palogrande.

With full stands, according to the protagonists of the match that closed the day on Sunday, the duel began with a lot of impetus from both sides, but that desire was not reflected in the last quarter of the field. The respect on both sides was noticeable.

However, it was the local team that generated the clearest options in the aerial game through Andrés Correa and Fáider Torijano, headers that went wide. While the purslane tried to reach Nelson Deossa, but he could not find partners to unbalance the Caldas defense.

It was Dayro Moreno, a former Nacional player, who broke the monotony after 45 minutes, capitalizing on a cross from the right and making the fans celebrate at dawn. The youthful Edier Ocampo arrived late at the mark.

Two minutes later, Neyder Moreno, who returned to the green house, equalized the actions with a cross shot after receiving Dorlan’s pass. With this result, the teams went to rest, while the fans await more emotions in the complementary stage.

The game became more disputed in the second half, although Once Caldas led by Pedro Sarmiento and Hernán Darío Herrera had more of the ball.

That stage looked busy, but it also featured a lot of interruptions due to fouls. The host came close to victory and was avoided by Kevin Mier. The point, for the purslane, was a good prize.
