Seven dates have passed in the Betplay 2024-I League and in this special there were perhaps the largest number of referee controversies so far. In almost all the matches of the weekend there was controversy with the judges and the VAR.
However, the games that attracted the most attention were Envigado vs. America Medellin vs. Fortress and Jaguars vs. Once Caldas where there were very debatable actions.
Likewise, what happened with Jhon Bodmer at the press conference after Nacional’s defeat against Deportivo Cali stands out, where a fan burst into the conference and told the purslane coach everything.
On the other hand, there were also important events such as Tolima’s victory over Junior to become the sole leader of the tournament and also the surprising victory of Águilas Doradas over Millonarios.
The good
Tolima is intractable: El Vinotinto y Oro won the duel for leadership against Junior and added its sixth consecutive game without losing which puts it at the top with 16 units.
Águilas surprised in Bogotá: Hernán Darío Gómez’s team took three important points to break their bad streak in the League and arrives with confidence for the Copa Libertadores game against Bragantino.
La Equidad remained undefeated: Although it is not a team with many goals and draws a lot, the Bogotá team is the only club that has not lost in the last semester. Alexis García’s team is already in seventh place.
The improvement on the Tunja field: Although Chicó’s victory over Alianza is also notable, what stood out most in this game was the improvement on the grass at the La Independencia stadium, which was heavily criticized in the past.
Bucaramanga’s good streak: Rafael Dudamel’s team beat Pasto in the final and recorded their sixth match without losing. The leopards begin to emerge within the eight.
The bad
Santa Fe does not find regularity: Pablo Peirano’s team had an excellent game against Pereira, but an error in the addition of Marcelo Ortiz threw away all the work in the 90 minutes and the Bogota team fell against Matecaña to add their third defeat at the tournament. Santa Fe is tenth, six behind the leader.
Once Caldas suffered in Montería: Jaguares exposed the shortcomings of ‘Blanco Blanco’ and beat them 3-0 in Jaraguay. Hernán Darío Herrera’s team showed its worst side in what was a direct duel for relegation.
Alianza FC is out of business: The Valledupar team has not started in a great way and fell to Chicó, which sank the Vallenato team further down the table, which is 18th with five points.
The ship sinks in Patriotas: Harold Rivera’s team is the only one that has not been able to win in the current semester and after the defeat against Equidad the Boyaca team closes the table with only two units.
The ugly
The terrible arbitration in Envigado vs. América: Two controversial actions, both against América, ignited the controversy in the tie between both clubs. In the first half, the judge did not charge a clear foul on Johan Garcés and in the second, the Naranjas equalized due to an alleged foul by Rodrigo Holgado on Daniel Polanco. The fact left as a decision that the arbitration committee will not take into account Heider Castro and Mauricio Mercado, both VAR judges.
Controversy in DIM vs. Strength: Before the end of the first part, the central judge indicated a penal dispute in favor of the Antioqueños. Not even the VAR intervened in the discussed action. Then, in the second half, Fortaleza would have a goal disallowed that was 3-0, but the referee considered that there was a foul in attack.
Eventful press conference: After Nacional’s loss to Cali, a fan broke into Jhon Bodmer’s press conference. The fan allegedly attacked a logistics person and forcibly entered the mixed zone to tell the coach everything. The subject has already been sanctioned by the relevant entities.
