RAfael Dudamel, coach of Bucaramanga, and Pablo Peirano, the coach of Santa Fe, prepare their slate for the challenge they will have in the League final. The two best in the tournament opted for similar tactical systems, with 3 centre-backs, and that clash of forces will be the challenge they will have to overcome.

Santa Fe is betting on the 3-5-2, a system that it found on matchday 8 and has not abandoned it. He is a figure that depends on the great work of the three defenders, in their coupling, and a very populated midfield, from where the game is developed. Both teams, by scheme, give great importance to the players on the wing, who are in charge of the round trip.
Solid defenses and high-level goalkeepers
It is not easy to score against these teams, it is not easy to penetrate their defensive zones. So it will be a challenge for the two technicians to find the formula, Because when Bucaramanga attacks, with its quick transitions or counterattacks, it will encounter the same five-man wall that Santa Fe will modify with the retreat of its wingers. For these aspects, Peirano spoke of the similarities between the two.
“There are similar things, but we are not identical, the structure may be similar but they manage three on the offensive side and we have two,” he said.
Halfway through the tournament, Dudamel was asked about his scheme, and he commented: “From the 4-3-1, the 4-3-3, the 5-4-1 we were finding that strength, that balance and that security that gave us It was allowing us to have a defensive solidity that gave us alternatives and that also brought us closer to the possibilities of being in the rival goal through good ball management.”
Arturo Boyacá talks about the differences between Bucaramanga and Santa Fe
Colombian coach Arturo Boyacá, passing through Santa Fe in three cycles, starts from the premise that systems do not win games, but analyzes: “Both have similar tactical systems both to defend with a 5-3-2 and to attack. with 3-5-2. The differences lie in where they stand to defend and how they will do it. If they are reactive immediately after losing the ball or prefer to recover positions. Surely as visitors their defensive block could be low and take advantage of spaces to take advantage of quick transitions. It will also be important to observe how their behavior will be at home and the different offensive proposals they assume to counteract that dense defensive block proposed by the opponent.”
