3-1. Borja and 'Cariaco' González give Junior pass to South American groups

Bogotá, 17 Mar With an outstanding performance by Colombian scorer Miguel Ángel Borja and Venezuelan creative Luis' Cariaco 'González, the Barranquilla Junior defeated La Equidad 3-1 on Thursday, in a duel of Colombian teams, and advanced to the group round of the Copa Sudamericana. The rojiblancos took advantage of their strength at home and managed to take advantage with a goal from Borja, while 'Cariaco' González increased and closed the penalty score, Yesus Cabrera. Momentary parity was achieved by the steering wheel Francisco Chaverra, which made the locals fear a disaster, something that did not happen. With this triumph, the Argentine coach Juan Cruz Real regains the confidence of the fans and managers because in the local tournament he started weak but has been improving until the expensive payroll set up playing circuits to win. Scorer Borja opened the way to victory, who capitalized on a pass by Fredy Hinestroza. They were just five minutes into the game that was moved, especially because of the attacks of the local, urged by victory to seal their passage to the next phase after 0-0 in the first leg. Borja, who is among those called up for the matches against Bolivia and Venezuela in the South American Qualifiers for the Qatar 2022 World Cup, smashed another ball against the horizontal. Despite going below the scoreboard, La Equidad did not give up looking for the properties of Uruguayan Sebastián Viera, who started to have work from the first quarter of an hour of the game. Equity was found by Equidad in the 19 minutes when Francisco Chaverra released, about 40 meters away, a shot that Viera could not control although he tried to reach the ball with his hands. Despite the fact that the draw took its toll, Junior did not stop looking for the advantage, the same one that the Venezuelan steering wheel 'Cariaco' González got in the 37th minute, who took advantage of a pass from Borja to defeat the resistance of Sergio Román. The second half resulted in less voltage because the teams accused the effort of the first part so they dosed their forces. Anyway, the one who did the most to increase the score was the eleventh Tiburón who with Borja and 'Cariaco' González wove plays that could not finish the goal because his teammates missed. Borja, who left the field, put the coaching staff of the Colombian national team on alert because he limped, was replaced by Carmelo Valencia, who also contributed to the attack with shots well controlled by Roman. The target that closed the night at 80 minutes was scored by Cabrera, from a penalty, because he was knocked down by Palacio, who pushed him when he was on his way to goal. The last 10 minutes were procedural because Junior hid the ball without giving La Equidad a chance to shorten the score. - Technical sheet: 3.
