Independiente Santa Fe suffered defeat against Atlético Bucaramanga at the Alfonso López, and now must row in the city of Bogotá to be able to obtain the long-awaited tenth star that has eluded it so much. Although the outlook for those led by Pablo Peirano is not too serious, if we take into account that the advantage for the Santander team is only one goal, and in the capital the cardinals are very good both defensively and offensively.
However, the capital team will have to hold on to winning by two goals or more to be champion in the 90 minutes, and faced with this situation that Santa Fe will have in El Campín, we are going to review which was the last team that got a star in the FPC after having lost the first leg duel.
Last team in the FPC to be champion after losing the first leg
2017-I
We move to the first half of that year, when Atlético Nacional and Deportivo Cali reached the grand final of the BetPlay League, where the sugar team won 2-0 in the first leg against the Purslanes in Palmaseca. However, in the return duel played at the Atanasio Girardot, the Antioqueños managed to obtain the star after beating the Vallecaucanos 5-1.
Now the cardinals will have to come back against the leopards next Saturday the 15th in El Campín, where Santa Fe only lost one game this semester at home (just against their next rival).
