América de Cali defeated Millonarios by the minimum difference of 1-0, at the Olímpico Pascual Guerrero stadium, in a postponed match from matchday 16 of the Colombian League.
The Scarlet team overcame Albiazul with great difficulty, who did not have a good first half but recovered in the second half and deserved to equalize or at least score a goal in the city of Cali.
The Red Devils were superior in the first 45 minutes and took the lead on the scoreboard deservedly, with a goal from Adrián Ramos, who finished a great play with an assist from Carlos Darwin Quintero.
The 37-year-old forward continues to score and has reached 97 goals with América's jersey, in fifth position in the historic top scorers' table of 'La Mechita' and is two goals away from the fourth position, currently held by Leonardo Fabio Moreno.
With this victory, the Valle del Cauca team earned three points that help them climb to the second position in the overall standings, displacing Independiente Medellín to third place.
The team led by Lucas González has a good chance of finishing the regular phase as the top seed, but for that, they must confirm it in the final match by defeating Atlético Bucaramanga.
