The classic between Deportivo Cali and América was suspended for more than 40 minutes, after the bad behavior of the local team's fans, before starting the second half.
América was winning 0-1, with a goal from Nilson Castrillón in the 45th minute+2, when the match was stopped by order of referee Wílmar Roldán, who, after waiting a while, gave a period of 15 minutes to make a final decision.
When the second stage was about to begin, from the south stand of the Palmaseca stadium, which was to be occupied by América's goalkeeper, Joel Graterol, they began to throw firecrackers and hundreds of rolls of paper.
After waiting a few minutes, Roldán and the América players went to the dressing rooms, while the members of Deportivo Cali remained on the field trying to calm the fans.
It should be remembered that Cali played its previous match behind closed doors, against Águilas Doradas, after an invasion of fans in the match against Patriotas, which the greens lost 0-1, and that the lower western stand was not enabled for this classic, therefore the same cause.
As the minutes passed, more videos appeared on social networks showing the incidents that forced the game to be suspended.
Finally, after waiting for the problem in the stands to be controlled, the game resumed at 10:12 at night, after almost an hour of waiting.
