In the Sport Cali until the last semester, the Uruguayan Gastón Rodriguez was the one in charge to collect the penal shots in the Sport Cali.
The charrúa steering wheel was effective and from this route it saved important points to the sugar picture.
For this second semester, with the arrival of Harold Preciado first, and then that of Teófilo, the order changed. In a league opening match against Bucaramanga in Palmaseca, a foul was committed on Gastón Rodríguez which was ruled a penalty kick.
The Uruguayan wanted to take the ball to collect, but it was already in the hands of Preciado and after a short discussion, it was the Colombian striker who ended up kicking, to the displeasure of his teammate.
From that day the order was established: first Preciado, second Gastón and third Teófilo.
In the duel this Saturday for Liga, a classic Vallecaucano against America, a penalty was presented in favor of Deportivo Cali. At that time they were not on the court Harold Preciado, due to injury, and Gastón Rodríguez on the bench.
But there was the third on the list, Teófilo Gutiérrez, who took the ball. People close to the bench of Cali say that coach Rafael Dudamel gave the order to collect Ángelo Rodríguez.
The striker took the ball, shot and bounced in front of the disappointment of the fans at Palmaseca. Why was the order changed? Dudamel has the floor.
