Argentina had just beaten Brazil, and Colombia rested on the first day of the South American Championship.
Colombia tied 1-1 against Argentina for the second date of the South American Under 20 Championshipin a game that marked the debut of the Tricolor, since on the first day they had rested. The equality left good feelings, and even a ‘disappointment’, since César Torres’ men deserved to win.
It was a match that from the start was ‘stuck’ in the middle of the field, as rough play was the protagonist, and although there were goal-scoring actions from both sides, and the defenses showed a lack of solidity, there was no precision on the part of the attackers.

Already around 33′, and after stepping into the area so much, Oscar Perea -possibly the best player on the Colombian National Team- scored the first goal of the game with his left foot, leaving a rival in the way.
But the joy was short-lived, as Andino entered the Colombian area on the right side against a timorous marker that even gave him a penalty, but having already made a back pass, the central judge declared the advantage and the action ended in goal of Claudio Echeverri.
Already in the second half there was a game with more intensity but fewer goal actions, although yes, the majority were of Colombiawho showed good football and was able to take the three points, but the Argentine goalkeeper did his part and little by little became a figure.
Consequently, A 1-1 was signed that leaves Colombia with one point and Argentina with foursince they had just beaten Brazil 6-0 on the first date. Now, both teams are getting ready for the third day.
