A categorical victory that seemed to be completely from Millonarios due to a festival of goals, really hid the suffering experienced by the ambassadors against a Cortuluá that dominated at the beginning of the second half, but could not withstand the blue pressure and with errors, it conditioned their panorama and the of the coaching staff led by César Torres.
Barely ten seconds passed when Millonarios took advantage of a split ball and Daniel Ruiz hit a tremendous volley outside the area to beat Ernesto Hernández. The partial victory did not last long with a shot by Julián Millán that grazed Juan Pablo Vargas and entered Álvaro Montero’s goal.
At 17 minutes, Daniel Ruiz appeared alone in the area, finished off and a defender deflected to the corner. In that shot, the ball traveled to the near post connected by Larry Vásquez and Luis Carlos Ruiz pushed the ball to the bottom anticipating his mark at the far post. Before the end of the first half, Cortuluá was able to equalize with a cross that Álvaro Montero released and was unable to control. The rebound could not be capitalized by the local team.
Already in the complement, Kalazans Suárez tried with a shot at 52 minutes that Álvaro Montero controlled. Then a cross from Wilder Guisao found Alexis Castillo Manyoma who couldn’t push her. But the hierarchy speaks on the pitch. At 71 minutes, an error by Henry Rojas with a back pass ended in a great definition by Carlos Gómez crossing his shot.
Cortuluá got excited with shots controlled by Álvaro Montero, and in another oversight, which the locals gave away a lot of space, Juan Pablo Vargas assisted Carlos Gómez who included his shot over Ernesto Hernández to seal the win.
