Junior managed to beat Millonarios 2-1 at the Metropolitan Stadium in Barranquilla and took three points from one of the favorites of quadrangular A, but beyond the result, Arturo Reyes’ team was superior throughout the game, but ended up suffering more of the account over the final minutes.
After the game in Barranquilla, Millonarios was criticized for his lack of productivity in attack and for the little reaction he had throughout the game and regarding this, defender Juan Pablo Vargas came out to explain in a press conference that at no time did he feel that Junior has dominated them.

“Junior only dominated us the first 15 minutes, for the rest, we controlled the game,” were the statements of the Costa Rican Vargas.
Given that statement, Junior’s goalkeeper and idol, Sebastián Viera, took the opportunity to remind Vargas and all of Millonarios that they remembered too late to react to win the game.
“No pa’. “They remembered that they were playing a final 10 minutes before the end of the game,” Viera said through his ‘X’ account.
The truth is that Junior started by winning against a direct rival and is excited to defend his title in this first semester, but the victory will have to be revalidated against Atlético Bucaramanga, while Millonarios will have to correct at home against Pereira.
