Once Caldas 0:1 América de Cali — Informe del Partido

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

Daniel Rosero Valencia's 71st-minute header settled a tense derby as América de Cali beat Once Caldas 0-1, a result that sets up a home clash with Atlético Nacional on 10 August. The defender's goal, assisted by Luis Quiñones, proved decisive in a match that turned on Jefry Zapata's 45th-minute red card, which left Once Caldas a man down for the entire second half.

The sending-off reshaped the contest entirely. Once Caldas had edged the opening period with 55% possession and nine shots, but after Zapata's dismissal, América seized control, dominating the second half with 59% possession and twelve attempts. Rosero Valencia, already booked in the 50th minute, then rose highest to convert Quiñones' delivery, while a VAR check in the 37th minute had earlier offered Once Caldas brief hope that came to nothing.

The numbers tell a clear story: América's 1.36 xG dwarfed Once Caldas's 0.59, and their 17 shots to 13 reflected sustained pressure after the interval. Rosero Valencia earned an 8.2 rating, the match's best, for his goal and defensive solidity from centre-back. CheckLive's model rated Once Caldas marginally ahead, but that call proved wrong, and the live signal backing the hosts also lost. América now meet Atlético Nacional.
