Contrary to what was expected, it was Chico's team that came in stronger and was more dominant throughout the match. Boyaca Chico's team started to put pressure on and reached 1-0 in the 29th minute. The Ind. Medellin team would not be able to react to the goal conceded, not even at the beginning of the second half. It would be Chico's team again to score the goal, in the 62nd minute, through a penalty. Despite needing to score to reach a draw, the Ind. Medellin team would never be able to create real chances of danger and it would be the Boyaca Chico team that reached the final 3-0 in the 81st minute. With this result, the Ind.

Fortaleza (WLDLW)

The Fortaleza team comes to this game after a fantastic and surprising 2-0 victory against Junior Barranquilla. It was expected that Junior's team, due to its position and form, would be more dominant in the match. However, it was precisely the opposite. It would be the Fortaleza team that came in more dominant, reaching 1-0 in the 9th minute through an own goal.
