Akrapovic Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 Pinto's team, at its worst, urges a win to avoid elimination. In the classics, the first thing that is played is pride, honor. The goal is to win to beat the old rival and by which the other finds his exact place in the football cosmos. It is winning by having - or maintaining - the particular supremacy, to shine the honor.

The classic Bogota this Wednesday night, between Millionaires and Santa Fe (8:15 pm, with Win Sports TV), is one of those double-edged, as the two have the obligation to win it to survive in the League, to classify the semifinal home runs and, obviously, maintain honor, defend pride. Santa Fe is sixth in the standings, with 28 points. Millionaires, tenth, with 27. The two, in the middle of the table; both, in the limit of the classification; both, on the edge of elimination. Two months ago these realities were very different. Santa Fe was in the basement of the League, having nightmares with the descent of next year, aimlessly. And Millionaires, without shining, was solid, looked at the championship from the top of the table and saw no cloud in its clear panorama. But in less than a month, since October 2 that he lost 3-1 against Cúcuta, he entered the auger and has not stopped his five-game free fall with four losses and one draw. What he had won wasted on defensive weaknesses, creative impotences and extreme offensive poverty. Santa Fe, however, since September 1 has been almost perfect 53 days of eight wins and two draws! Ten consecutive games without receiving a goal! A very safe, fast and practical team in attack. Recent Classics From the most important Bogota classic in history, the return of the final of the December 2017 League, when Millionaires drew 2-2 and won their star 15, this Wednesday may be the most decisive hand to hand for blue and red from the double of the South American Cup (both 0-0 and victory of Santa Fe on penalties). The last eight classics, including that of the last title of Millos and the two of the South American, are summarized in five draws and three victories of Santa Fe; with eight goals for the cardinals and just three for the ambassadors. Since that end of 2017, none of the classics has had the crucial importance of what will happen tonight at El Campín, in which everything is at stake: the classification of one of the two, the possibility that both are still alive or even the elimination of both. That is the basics, the important thing, the core of today's confrontation, which goes beyond the local record of unbeatability that can be broken by goalkeeper Leandro Castellanos, who is missing 117 to overcome the 1,024 of Otoniel Quintana (Millos, in 1971 ). The campaign, the classification, the shame, the honor and the pride in a classic Millionaires-Santa Fe at the limit of tension is at stake.
