After the defeat in the Copa Libertadores, Nacional added another loss, this time against Atlético Bucaramanga by 3-1. The team that until a few hours ago was led by Alejandro Restrepo, has as its main objective in the season to reach the group stage.

The last two defeats, added to the poor soccer level in recent games, forced the decision to leave coach Alejandro Restrepro. The DT in charge of directing the Cup match will be Hernán Darío Herrera, along with Carlos ‘Piscis’ Restrepo as assistant.

One of the criticisms made of Restrepo was his full confidence in Jefferson Duque, Dorlan Pabón and some other references, who were not at their best level, but continued to have opportunities in the starting team.

Olimpia, the favorite to keep the key, arrives with 9 games without knowing defeats. The Paraguayans left César Vallejo from Peru on the road, a team they defeated in both games.
