The two teams from Valle del Cauca and Millonarios still have the chance to be Santa Fe’s rival in the title fight. There is a three-way tie at 9 points, but América is leading due to the sporting advantage that comes from finishing first in the round-robin phase.

The accounts of America, Cali and Millonarios for the last date of the semifinal quadrangulars of the women’s league
América has the first chance to qualify. They must beat Millonarios by any score. They also advance with a draw if Cali does not win. That match will be played at the Francisco Rivera Escobar stadium in Palmira, since the Pascual Guerrero stadium is undergoing adjustments for the U-20 Women’s World Cup.
Cali, for its part, will have to beat Llaneros in Yopal and hope that América ties, or win at least by the same goal difference as Millonarios, if the blues win in Palmira.
Millonarios’ option has become more complicated. They will have to defeat América and not let Cali win, or win by two more goals than the sugar producers. If they do so by one more, the goals in their favor will come into play.
