Edwin Cardona missed a great chance to give Atlético Nacional a significant advantage in the round of 16 match of the Libertadores.
The number 10 of the Colombian team missed TWO penalties in the game this Tuesday (12) against SĂŁo Paulo, in MedellĂn.
Moreover, he even "saved" the defender Nahuel Ferraresi, who was responsible for committing both penalties.
The first one happened just ten minutes into the game when the ball hit the defender's arm inside the box.
Cardona took the penalty, shot low, and sent it wide to the left of the goal.
The second penalty occurred in the second half, after a foul by Ferraresi on Morelos.
Cardona again shot low aiming for the left corner, but this time Rafael was there to make the save.
The return match of the confrontation takes place next Tuesday (19), at Morumbi.
