Nacional's accounts to qualify for the quadrangulars - ESPN

The Verdolaga cast defeated Boyacá Chicó and reached 30 points in the standings.

The Verdolaga cast defeated Boyacá Chicó and reached 30 points in the standings.

Atlético Nacional achieved a very important 3-1 victory against Boyacá Chicó at the La Independencia stadium in Tunja, which left them very close to qualifying for the semifinals quadrangulars of the 2023-II Colombian League.

The Verdolaga team is virtually in the next round, but some results in the remaining two matchdays of the all against all phase could eliminate them.

The Antioqueño team is currently in fourth position in the standings with 30 points and needs a draw to secure their spot in the quadrangulars and continue fighting for the title of the Colombian League Finalización.

If they fail to earn points in the upcoming matches against Alianza Petrolera and Deportes Tolima, both games at the Atanasio Girardot stadium, they would have to rely on Atlético Junior and Deportivo Cali not winning both of their matches.

Likewise, they could benefit if Millonarios, Deportes Tolima, and Alianza Petrolera do not surpass them in the standings. These three teams are currently in fifth (Albiazul), sixth (Vinotinto), and seventh (Aurinegro) positions.

The positive aspect for the team led by Bodmer is that Nacional has a better goal difference against their closest rivals. The paisa team has +11, while Tiburón has +8 and Azucarero has −2.

Therefore, although they are not mathematically classified, it is very unlikely that they will be eliminated due to their goal difference in the top eight of the Colombian championship.
