In a game filled with excitement, the Capitalino team took control of Matchday 3 with a remarkable 2-3 victory, pushing the Felinos into a challenging position at Jaraguay Stadium in Montería. Under the guidance of Ricardo Valiño, Internacional de Bogotá demonstrated impressive attacking prowess, leaving their opponents with little response in this epic clash. Jhon Altamiranda (15’, 2T) and Darwin López (39’, 2T) managed to score for Alexis Márquez’s side, but it was not enough to fend off the onslaught of goals from Internacional de Bogotá, who celebrated with strikes from Kevin Parra (7’, 1T), Fabricio Sanguinetti (20’, 1T), and Dereck Moncada (7’, 2T).
A standout moment came just 7 minutes into the second half, when Dereck Moncada found the net after an impressive setup from Kevin Parra, who assisted him to strike from the semicircle into the left post.
Dereck Moncada emerged as the standout player of the match, scoring one goal while also attempting two shots at the opposing goal.
Kevin Parra also proved to be vital for the team, netting one goal and seeking to add more with two attempts.
Jaguares’ coach, Alexis Márquez, deployed a 4-5-1 formation with Diego Martínez protecting the goal, supported by Luis Jimenez, Carlos Mosquera, Carlos Henao, and Mauricio Castaño in defense. Fabián Mosquera, Johan Hinestroza, Wilfrido de la Rosa, Cristian Álvarez, and Jader Maza made up the midfield, while Santiago Cubides led the attack.
On the other hand, Ricardo Valiño’s men lined up in a 4-5-1 formation too, with Wuilker Faríñez in goal; Ronaldo Julio, Carlos Vivas, Agustín Irazoque, and Kalazán Suárez in defense; Larry Vásquez, Dannovi Quiñones, Dereck Moncada, Facundo Boné, and Kevin Parra in midfield; and Fabricio Sanguinetti upfront.
The match was officiated by referee Edwin Trujillo Castro at Jaraguay Stadium.
Looking ahead, the Felinos will travel to face At. Nacional, while Internacional de Bogotá will play their next match at home against Tolima.
With this result, the hosts now sit on 3 points in 13th place, while the visiting team rises to 6 points, landing them in 4th place in the standings.
