The match between Deportivo Cali and Independiente Santa Fe ended in a 2-0 victory for the visiting team, with both goals highlighting Santa Fe's efficiency in seizing critical chances. Independiente Santa Fe capitalized on an early lead with a swift goal at the 18th minute, which disrupted the home team's rhythm and dictated their playstyle throughout the match. Their ability to double the advantage in the second half underscored their strategic counter-attacking prowess, making every attacking move count against Cali's defense.

Statistically, Independiente Santa Fe's tactical discipline shone through even amidst aggressive play resulting in six yellow cards and two red cards. Despite the reckless tackles that marred their discipline, their numerical inferiority was not evident on the pitch. Their defensive resilience and adept goalkeeper performances, supported by timely clearances and key saves, ensured that Deportivo Cali's attempts, including three corners and numerous shots lacked precision or effect.

Conversely, Deportivo Cali exhibited a lacklustre offensive performance, failing to muster any goals despite tactical adjustments and periodic pressure. The team's inability to overcome Santa Fe's defense, despite having fewer disciplinary issues, reflected a lack of creativity and incisive finishing in crucial areas. The marginal difference in offsides highlights the struggles in breaking Santa Fe's defensive line, proving costly in Cali's attempt to forge a comeback. Overall, the balance between efficient play under pressure and the exploitation of early chances by Santa Fe decisively influenced the match's outcome.
