Jaguares Cordoba come into this match after a 0-0 draw against Millonarios. Millonarios were dominant in this match creating 27 shooting opportunities and controlling 72% of the match’s possession but the Jaguares possessed disciplined defensive formation that prevented the home side from scoring. The away team was much shier and only managed to have three shots in the entire match with none of them inviting the goalkeeper. In the first half Millonarios had ensured that they were definitely the greater side with 71% possession and 9 shots attempted though only 4 were actual on target. Jaguares tried one shot on goal only, and that was not dangerous at all to the Millonarios defence line. The second half also had the same tactic where Millonarios increase the pressure even more. The home team tried attacking the rivals’ gates 18 times but once more the Jaguares lacked accurate shooting and tenacity in defense that led to a scoreless game. At the same time, the away team performed well to ensure they did not allow Millonarios to score goals through such attacks. Nevertheless, it should be noted the superiority of Millonarios on the field but the lack of goals scored which was one of the causes of the final draw. With this result, Jaguares Cordoba is in 19th place in the table with 7 points. In the last 5 league games, the team has recorded 1 win, 1 draw and 3 losses, with a record of 2 goals scored and 10 goals conceded. The team has the worst attack in the league with just 2 goals scored in 11 matches played.

Junior Barranquilla was able to cut the advantage with an own goal from Moreno V., just before the break, to provide it with a 1-2 halftime score. Junior showed the spirit of trying to transform the situation at the begining of the second half and equalize the match in the 60th minute with a goal of Olivera E. But Águilas Doradas recover and Quiñones scored the second goal at the 62 minutes 2-3. It was Junior that found himself in real trouble when in the 71st minute of the match Goez Y. made the score 2-4. Even a final attempt to equalise, with a penalty goal from Rodríguez S. in the 87th minute of the game, wasn’t enough; Junior lost 3-4.
