Although it has not lost in its last seven presentations, Millonarios has been postponing its classification for several dates, in part, because he had a couple of games postponed (in fact, he still has one to go, against América, which will be played on Monday) and, in part, because of a setback that still does not allow him to see the table with peace of mind, the draw 1 -1 against the relegated Unión Magdalena in El Campín.
Millonarios returns to its stadium this Wednesday, now, to receive Boyacá Chicó, a team with no relegation problems this year, but also without qualification aspirations.
The only card left for Boyacá Chicó, but with very few options, is to fight for a place in the Copa Sudamericana through reclassification.
Depending on the results of the teams behind in the standings, Millos could arrive at game time (8:20 pm) with qualification almost assured.
The blues depend on what happens a couple of hours before in Pereira, where Junior plays. But coach Alberto Gamero is not confident: he wants to win today so as not to depend on anyone. With a win, the place will be assured.
This is how Alberto Gamero sees the panorama to classify
“The group has to recover, it is no secret to anyone that Millonarios is not going to think that with 29 points they are classified, there are very complicated games coming up in both the League and the Cup,” said Gamero after the victory against Santa Fe in the classic (2-3, last Saturday).
Millos wants to settle the classification before getting into a marathon of matches. After Monday’s game against América, he will have, in four days, the Cup quarterfinal series against the surprising Cúcuta Deportivo, in another title that he wants to defend.
It should be remembered that the blues, if they repeat the title in the League or Cup, will open one more place for the Copa Libertadores through reclassification.
