Santa Fe defeated DIM and maintains playoff options in the FPC

Close victory of Santa Fe. Won 2-1 at Medellin asking for time and with 15 units he continues with classification options in the Colombian league.

Fourth Cardinal victory of the season. After four games he was able to maintain the advantage he achieved in the first half and was left with a tight victory against an opponent who played a good part of the complement with nine players due to the expulsion of Didier Moreno and Alexis Serna.

Due to his usual entry initiative, he opened the scoring after half an hour of play through an inside combination between Hugo Rodallega and Luis Palacios, defined by the winger in one-on-one with goalkeeper Salvador Ichazo.

The 2-0 came with a great goal from winger Helibelton Palacios in the 60th minute. He took a rebound in the area and crossed the shot far from the Uruguayan’s reach. Captain Rodallega had the third but his shot hit the post. In a mistake in defense, he allowed the discount with Francisco Chaverra.

Despite the numerical superiority, Santa Fe ended up locked in its field. DIM accelerated due to the tie amidst the local nervousness, which was transferred to the stands with reproaches. In the end he won, completing 15 points and moving to 13th place.

On date 14, the Bogotá team will visit Bucaramanga on Friday, March 27.
