The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Juan Borja runs at them all day
Successful dribbles: 28. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Miguel Cuadrado, 21, steals the show — 7.74
Marked 7.74 at 21, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

Vintage Carlos Ospina — 8.00
At 33 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 8.00, and nobody on the pitch better.

La Equidad get the job done against Aguilas Doradas
A 2‑0 win over Aguilas Doradas, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Jhon Azcárate stays put
“The easiest signature of my career.” Jhon Azcárate and La Equidad agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

“We earned that. I asked them for a reaction and I got one, and now I want the same again on Saturday.” Camilo Gonzalez on a 2‑0 afternoon that pleased him more than he was prepared to show.
