Fortunately, this is the first date. Santa Fe Union at Junior from Barranquilla encouraged a hot debut in the Copa Sudamericana, which ended 1-1 after having a single scorer, two expelled and six yellow cards after some excitement between the players, of rank H.

The party woke up from the beginning: two minutes later, Tatengue was able to take the lead when, after a series of rebounds in the area, Federico Vera he connected from the right and placed it next to the goalkeeper’s right post Look to blow up the huge amount of public that filled the stadium April 15.

It took 180 seconds for the same player to convert again, but on the other arch: tried to close a shot of Gabriel Fuentes -after an overflow in his lane- he dotted the ball, deflected its trajectory and got into his own goal. The debut of both in this edition of the Copa Sudamericana, did not give a break.

After the first dizziness, situations gave way to disputes. Gastón González began claiming fouls — an ankle kick and then a stomp—, which went unnoticed by the main referee or his assistants. Justice by one’s own hand, when freddy hinestrosa he received, the party fully turned: excitement, contention and promises of boxing after the fight. Just two yellows per side, soaked in water and that cardboard looks like every strong leg.

The Colombian team did not stand on the field to pick up the reins, but managed to put under Tatenguefrom -main- the balls that Jorge Arias vacuumed. Using that formula, 10 minutes from the end of the first half, Borja overflowed to his left to reach the payload and take a left footed shot that returns to the crossbar. The clearest for visiting.

That yellow festival that appeared in the first stage had fruits in the second: in nine minutes Luis Gonzalez He saw how the second precaution put the red on stage. While fans are still rubbing their hands on the advantage of playing against a broken team, Gaston Gonzalez -who had been in all the controversies- also go to the locker room because referee Andres Matonte he drove it away a minute later.

From the surprising start to the repetitive chaos, the game ended without advantages: either the number due to the balanced expulsion, or the score. The classification was for the best in the group and nothing was done enough to add the three points at stake. The point leaves the two at a disadvantage against a system that only classifies the first until the next time. And Fluminense, in the other game, beat Oriente Petrolero 3-0 and underestimated everything from above.
