Atlético Nacional defeated Deportivo Pereira 5-4 in shots from the penalty spot to qualify for a new final of the Colombia Cup.
Nacional equalized the series by winning 3-1 at Parque Estadio Sur, which received the greens because the Atanasio Girardot stadium is busy with the setup of the RBD concerts, which will take place this weekend.
Pereira, seeking its second final in three years, had won 2-0 in the first leg.
Jéfferson Duque scored 1-0 at 35 minutes and Venezuelan Eric Ramírez, after a great team play, made it 2-0, at 45+2. This is how the first stage ended. The Uruguayan Adrián Balboa restored hope to Pereira by making it 2-1, in the 59th, but Duque repeated in the 72nd to take the series to a tiebreaker from the penalty spot.
In the series, Nacional did not miss any of its shots and goalkeeper Kevin Mier saved the last of Deportivo Pereira’s shots, executed by Johan Bocanegra.
The team led by Jhon Bodmer will face the winner of the duel between Millonarios and Cúcuta Deportivo. The first game will be this Thursday, at 8 pm, in El Campín. The second leg will be played on Sunday at 5 pm, at the General Santander stadium.
