The Santander team, which aims to achieve the ‘invisible point’, also has the possibility on the field of play of recording the best campaign in its history in short tournaments.

In addition to the above, Rafael Dudamel’s pupils will have the possibility of assuming the lead in the classification, since their direct rival, Deportes Tolima, was defeated by Atlético Nacional.

Atlético Nacional surprised

With scores from Edier Ocampo (21′), Juan Felipe Aguirre (51′) and Andrés Salazar Osorio (84′), Atlético Nacional ended its irregular season with a 3-1 victory against Deportes Tolima.

The Ibaguero team was inferior against the ‘purslanes’, who from the first minutes of the match tried to surprise through different shots from mid-distance.

As time went by and after the expulsion of Junior Hernández (‘pijao’ player), the Antioqueños took full control of the dispute and settled the overall score.

After the commitment, David Gónzalez’s pupils, who beyond the defeat, will be seeded in the home runs, could lose first place in the table if Atlético Bucaramanga defeats Alianza FC.

The team led by Rafael Dudamel, for now, is second with 35 units and has the first option to ensure being the other seed in the next phase.

The other two teams that have the possibility of reaching the ‘invisible point’ are Independiente Santa Fe, which accumulates 34 points and visits Jaguares on the last day, and La Equidad, which registers 33 points and closes at home against Deportivo Pereira.
