Colombia enjoyed a football match again after 10 days of suspending professional competitions, both domestically and internationally, due to the 7.4-magnitude earthquake on the Richter scale on August 10, which left more than 300 dead in the Pacific and Coffee Region areas.
Unfortunately, Deportes Tolima lost the first leg of the Copa Libertadores round of 16 by the narrowest of margins to an Independiente del Valle side that, in the opening minutes of the match, landed the decisive blow to take the advantage away from home. It was also their first-ever win in the country.
It is worth remembering that the Pijao have never reached the quarterfinals of this tournament in their history, which is why they are going all in to make a deep run, while IDV have not advanced past the round of 16 since 2016, when they were runners-up and lost the trophy to Atlético Nacional in Medellín.
