The keys appeared. After the controversy over the own goal in América de Cali’s match against Junior, because there was no clear image showing the ball going in, a revealing video appeared.
In Barranquilla the video appeared that was not seen in Cali. In the action, with which Junior tied América in the last minutes, there were many doubts about whether the ball entered.
It was at the moment when Jean Pestaña, América’s central defender, tried to evacuate the ball and sent it deep.
However, Omar Bertel tries to get it out of bounds, an action that was in time for those in charge, while for the line assistant, the referee and the junior players, the ball went in.
The VAR could not find, because they do not have it, an image that is in line with the goal and therefore they could not contradict the referee and his assistant.
The situation heated up players, coaching staff and América fans who swear that the ball never went in and in fact that feeling was felt for long hours.
But then, a junior account on
The video, from a very professional cell phone, shows the follow-up of the play and, being online, shows how Bertel takes the ball from inside.
The VAR didn’t see it, but a fan did! End of the controversy, a “pro” cell phone did justice in the América game against Junior
Once the images came out, many questions arose, one of them is, who was the fan who published a video that harmed his team? Taking into account that visiting fans were prohibited.
Now, given that doubt, it could have been an ‘infiltrated’ Junior fan, as happens in most stadiums in the country.
The other question is whether the video is indeed clean or was edited, something that in the age of artificial intelligence is relatively easy to do.
In any case, this video saves the homeland of the referee and his assistant, the latter, quite hung up on the play, but who still ensured that the ball went in.
With the tie, Junior was the leader with 4 points, along with Atlético Nacional with the same number of points.
Precisely the two teams with the most points will face each other this Wednesday at the Ditaires stadium, where the green paisa is home.
