Millonarios, the worst Colombian team in the group stage of Conmebol tournaments
With Alianza’s victory, the Conmebol tournaments left a very negative milestone for Millonarios: it was the only Colombian team that did not win a game in the group stage and also the only one that did not get a point as a visitor.
Independiente Medellín, which began losing 2-0 with Always Ready, recovered: it beat César Vallejo in Trujillo (1-5) and tied 1-1 with Defensa y Justicia.
On the other hand, Millonarios’ campaign outside the country was calamitous: they lost all three games and all received three goals per game: 3-2 against Bolívar, 3-1 against Palestino and 3-0 against Flamengo.
