Jorge Bava: "It was a very tight game, like any final"

Independent Santa Fe It did not pass from the tie in front of the Independent Medellín In the first leg of the final of the Colombian League 2025-I played at the El Campín de Bogotá stadium.

At the end of the commitment, the Cardinal coach, Jorge Bava, was a press conference Where he analyzed the result, the changes he made in the second half and the options that his direction has to get the title in Medellín.

Dim Dim analysis

“The games are totally different, if they have a similarity with Millionaires and the Medellín that are very good in the transitions, in the counterattacks, perhaps the other day having found the goals so early there was a change of the game, today it was not so and sudden They played direct, in that they are very good because they saute lines immediately and became a very tight game with moments for both teams ”

The changes in the second half

“The idea was to continue maintaining the scheme, closing the bands with the flyers on the outside, we needed legs in favor to take advantage of the back of the lanes and the stopper and I had to make a decision”

The bad delivery of the ball

“It may be that, at times for our efficiency, by the field or by pressure exerted by the rival we had some ball loss, but I technical errors try to give tools to improve them, but I do not fall much, I focus more on the tactical, on how to correct certain situations. It may have had a bad delivery but they have also had good deliveries and circulations that have allowed us goals”

The performance of the Santa Fe players

“I think that the team has been competitive during all this time and today it was no exception, perhaps it was a very tight game like every final, more when we have an opponent in front such as Medellín and at all times it was competitive, in many phases of the game we have had to attack more and it has done well, we have had to defend and it has done well, that highlights the spirit that this team has to win the championship. resilient”

The return game at Atanasio Girardot

“They are different games, it will be very disputed because it is a final, we will study what we did today, the good thing about this is that they are close games with the same rivals with the same players and patterns. Our idea is the usual, going out to compete the game in all phases of the game”

Zapata and Murillo’s injuries

“Alexis Zapata has already begun to train, he is doing it progressively, we are going to wait these days to evaluate it well, the Ewil Murillo does not have an accurate forecast yet because the injury is very recent, we will wait until tomorrow”
