Millonarios had been doing things well in the local tournament. I don’t know if they were thinking more about Sunday’s game, but the first thing was the game in Chile.

Millonarios’ rivals
With a victory or a tie against Deportivo Cali in Palmaseca, the Colombian champion, Junior from Barranquilla, secures a place among the eight, is seventh with 28 points and three more in goal difference. If they lose, they need Medellín not to win and Once Caldas not to score points against América.
Yes Once Caldas beats América in Palogrande, will return to the home runs after nine eliminations. A draw is also enough, unless Medellín wins by more than 10 goals. If you lose, you must hope that the DIM does not win. The ‘white, white’ is eighth with 28 points and a goal difference of zero.
Independiente Medellín does not depend on itself: it only qualifies if it defeats Envigado and lose Millos, Junior or Once Caldas. The poor goal difference forces them to an unusual beating, of 11 or more difference, to advance if someone from above ties.
