Coach David González definitely does not want to hear whistles for his team again, only applause. This Sunday he again made the fans recognize his work after beating Jaguares 1-0 and being very close to the group of eight.
Although at first the feline group created danger for him, the good saves by Andrés Mosquera Marmolejo once again filled the Powerful with confidence, who little by little took over the commitment.
Led by Daniel Torres and Jaime Alvarado, who with order, discipline and deployment, allowed the local team to start taking away the momentum from the visitors and also the ball, the outlook improved.
In the second half, the scarlet cast advanced the lines and did not allow Jaguares the same facilities.
The companies began to work and the defense of the Montería club began to crack after the wear and tear that Luciano Pons and Felipe Pardo had been carrying out, who after that work was replaced by Déinner Quiñones.
In the stands, the encouragement of the fans was constant, also because the Atanasio Girardot stadium was celebrating its birthday and they expected their team on the field to give a gift to the sports scene, which celebrated its 70th anniversary.
Finally, at minute 75, the goal came after an exceptional pass from Quiñones to Éver Valencia.
Valencia is another that has been changing the perception of the fans with goals and assists in this start of 2023.
His good run, in terms of productivity with the DIM, has restored his confidence and the team as well.
That score was enough for the red team to take the three points and be left with 11 units, the same ones that have the seventh and eighth.
The victory was more than necessary, because DIM had just lost to Chicó. However, the qualification to the group stage of the Libertadores revived spirits.
Now they will be able to face the next 4 games against strong rivals with greater confidence, such as Saturday’s classic against Nacional (6:20 pm), then host Tolima, visit Millonarios and play Cali at Atanasio.
Also, you should focus on the draw for the group stage, on March 27.
So up to here, coach David González continues to get away with it. He has intact chances of qualifying for the home runs of the League, and got the team into the group stage of the continental tournament. Although the time he looked towards the stands when they were being whistled seemed challenging to many, it shows that he has never doubted his ability or that of his leadership to carry out the objectives that were set at the beginning of anus.
For now, the DIM has accumulated two consecutive victories and will reach the classic against Nacional emboldened and eager to continue extending this streak of positive results that it has been chaining.
