Scarlet’s weak game at Atanasio Girardot, surpassed by the powerful efficient of ‘Bolillo’ Gómez.
Of America clear, forceful, dominating and winner of recent dates, very little. Del Osorio erratic, in approach, strategy, reading and changes that condemned him in recent times, quite a lot. The Red Devil couldn’t keep up and looked pale in the mountain capital.
Line of three defenders foreseeing a cautious and betting Medellín for the fast counterattack, which in the few times it was attacked, it blurred. A midfield that did not have clarity to go from his property to the opposite field and a harmless forward, largely due to the low productivity of Quiñones and Lucumí to try to make Ramos shine. The visit tested several formulas, all deciphered in advance by the local and there the difference reflected by the score was noticed.
Osorio’s anger throughout the game and expressed in the goals suffered, is a call for self-criticism and self-evaluation. Were Once Caldas and Águilas real tests for the team or were they leaked like placebos? The truth is that tonight at the Atanasio Girardot, America gave up part of the ground gained in the new process and will have to carefully review each line, demanding more regularity in various pieces.
Editor’s pick
The Medellín de ‘Bolillo’, faithful to his style, philosophy and way of feeling football, applied a widely known plan and executed everything to the millimeter to deservedly win the first victory in the championship. Medellín did not do much more for the game, he did the right thing to stay with him, taking advantage of the fact that confusion reigned in front of him.
