The Junior of Barranquilla could not round the night he was looking for at the Metropolitan Stadium. After the fall in the classic coastal against Unión Magdalena, the team led by Arturo Reyes had the opportunity to recover this Friday before its audience against equity.
However, despite a marked domain and generate multiple goal options, the shark box barely matched 1-1 against the Bogota, in a duel that opened the date 11 of the Betplay Dimayor League.
From the beginning, Junior assumed prominence and launched himself in search of the rival arch. The high pressure, rapid transitions and mobility of its ends allowed him to accumulate approaches. Over the 90 minutes, the rojiblancos registered about 20 auctions, six of them directed to the arch.
The lack of precision and the outstanding performance of the insurance goalkeeper, Eduar Esteban Beltrán, prevented the score from opening in the first half. The goalkeeper became the figure of that section, stopping half and short distance shots.
For its part, equity barely managed to sustain itself in defense, without generating danger on the goal of Jefferson Martínez in the first 45 minutes. The bet of the Spanish as a whole Diego Merino was to close the spaces to the rival and resist the siege.
Junior's effort award came in the final stretch of the commitment. At minute 70, Brayan Castrillón, who had entered the complement, attended the Paraguayan Gonzalo Paiva, who sent the ball to the bottom of the network to decree the 1-0 that seemed definitive.
However, Equity reacted in the last section. First, Mateo Rodas warned with a shot that demanded Martínez, and when just five minutes were missing for the end, Jovany Bolívar silenced the metropolitan. The Venezuelan signed the final 1-1, frustrating the local party.
The tie left a bitter taste in Junior, which despite its domain already generated, once again showed difficulties in the definition. The Barranquillera squad remains at the tip of the tournament with 27 points, just one more than Independiente Medellín, who steps on his heels in the classification.
Equity, on the other hand, added a valuable point as a visitor. Although it is still in the lower part of the table, it is now fourteenth with 11 units and keeps alive the illusion of getting into the fight for a place in the semifinal home runs.
