Then, the expulsion of his forward Carlos Bacca, the one that the VAR 'threw' back after seeing the play more clearly. Alvaro Montero, the Millonarios goalkeeper, referred to everything that happened on the playing field of El Campin, especially in the play of the first blue goal, in which Junior calls for a foul.

And he added: “Football is something to inspire people, more than anything the children who are going to see an example and what happened there has nothing to do with that. I let the players know that this is not being loyal to the game of football, regardless of the mistakes that may occur, many times it benefits you and other times it harms you.”

Montero continued speaking. In the press conference he expressed what he felt and the feeling he had after this difficult commitment, the same one that they carried out and has them among the eight best in the championship.

“You have to know how to live with these situations and be cautious with what is transmitted. What was done today is wrong, both them and us, with the attitude we had and it is something that has to set a precedent for the better and continue growing in football,” he declared.

“All people make mistakes, we are exposed to these types of circumstances. What I can say is that if we have the ability to improve, grow and professionalize these situations, to have attitudes in line with the game, we must respect the game beyond the interests of any team, we must have the ability to face the games “How they faced today, adverse situations, players believing themselves more than everyone else, is a respectful way of saying that we can improve,” he said.
