On the last date Atlético Nacional won an agonizing 3-3 draw against Deportivo Cali at the Palmaseca stadium after losing by three goals. With this result, the 'Verdolaga' team was consolidated in the second position of the Dimayor Betplay League with 24 units two from the leader Millonarios who will play today against Independiente Medellín in El Campín.
The directors are still working on the search for the successor of Alejandro Restrepo, who intentionally would be very close to directing in the second division of Colombian professional football after his time at the 'King of Copas'.
Despite being in the eight, Antioquia's green fans are among the most demanding, and they will always want their team to compete in titles at the local level where they haven't won since 2017, and of course internationally where they haven't had the best performances in recent years.
For this reason, the internship is already planning what will be the second semester for Atlético Nacional, regardless of the result obtained by those led by Hernán Darío Herrera who is acting at the helm of the club.

One of Nacional's black points in the current championship has been in the goal. Aldair Quintana is harshly resisted by the fans after his bad performances that cost the team points and Kevin has not been a guarantee pledge and has also been involved in several scores against.
Therefore, according to Antena 2, the first start in Nacional for next semester would be that of 26-year-old Aldair Quintana who came to the club in 2019 after an outstanding step at Atlético Huila.
A different case was that of Baldomero Perlaza, who at the beginning was criticized by a sector of the fans but little by little he gained the love of the attendees. However, the renewal of the steering wheel that is currently recovering from an injury suffered in the Colombian Cup final against Deportivo Pereira, is far from being realized.
Another one who could leave the Guarné facility, is Jarlan Barrera. The former Barranquilla Junior would not have reached an agreement with the managers to extend his stay at Atlético Nacional either. The 26-year-old samarium was signed in 2019 after his time without regret or glory in Argentina where he defended the colors of Rosario Central.
In the purdolaga jacket, Jarlan has played a total of 116 matches where he scored 27 goals and distributed 21 assists. It was previously known that there were offers for the steering wheel from Brazil and the Middle East.
At the moment we will have to wait for the development of the league and Copa Colombia, the only competitions that Atlético Nacional will have this year after the premature elimination in the previous phase of the Conmebol Libertadores at the hands of Olimpia in Paraguay.
Next Monday, March 28, Nacional will receive at the Athanasio Girardot Independiente Santa Fe who is led by the Argentine Martín Cardetti. The capital team marched sixth with 19 units and defeated Atletico Bucaramanga 3-1 in their last outing.
