Far is the America of Cali Model 2025, of that which became great in the 80s and 90s. It has nothing to do with the one that won three consecutive titles at the beginning of this century and not with that of the last double, in 2019 and 2020.
Remember, yes, to which it descended to the B in 2011, after three poor campaigns. This Saturday, before Fortaleza, in the ceiling stadium, 'La Mechita' at no time was caught. For just over 90 minutes their players wandered down the court, without game ideas, without a soul, without attitude.
That is why after nine games this semester, the scarlet painting has barely added six of 27 possible points. He started the tournament with the Argentine Gabriel Raimondi on the bench and for a couple of days he is under the orders of Álex Escobar, in charge.
This week it was announced that the new coach of the Red Caleños is David González, fired from Millionaires 20 days ago for the bad results. He receives the team in the last place in the table, in which he left his previous club, and with the difficult mission of recovering him physically and emotionally.
Fortaleza completed 11 undefeated dates in the Betplay League
This Saturday, América visited Fortaleza, at the ceiling stadium, with a majority of red fans in the stands. They made themselves felt, but the team did not answer them.
And the Bogota team was enough 45 minutes of good football to make a difference. From the hand of the veteran Antioquia steering wheel Andrés Ricaurte, the 'Amix' generated several danger options and advanced on the scoreboard thanks to a penalty transformed into a goal by Sebastián Valencia.
Not even the expulsion for Jhon Harold Balanta's premises, starting the complement, made America react. Without game generation in half, but above all lacking leaders with leadership and character, the red team barely approached the rival arch and at no time disturbed those led by Sebastián Oliveros.
In fact, the only emotion in the second part came in addition time, when Jhonier Steven Salas scored the second for strength, but the VAR invalidated the action because it was slightly advanced.
Very good, ASO Yes, the level of the Bogota team, which reached 21 points and shares the lead with the Junior of Barranquilla. The 'Amix' completed 11 undefeated games in the tournament, with five wins and six draws.
On Sunday, September 21, they will visit Millonarios, at El Campín Stadium, while America will update two games this week, Tuesday against Bucaramanga and Friday against Once Caldas, both in the Pascual Guerrero of Cali.
