Envigado v Independiente Medellin

Despite the wrong ground mishap we walked up the stadium steps just as the first ball was kicked.

Medellin needed a win, and hope that others lost in order to achieve a play in the end of half season play offs. Despite a 1-0 victory for the away side, other results didn't go their way as they missed out on goal difference.

Given that Medellin were the away team here, we were surprised that their supporters outnumbered the home fans by about 50:1.

Medellin were clearly the better side, and I spent much of the game deliberating about whether or not they would beat Tranmere, which at the moment probably anyone could do.

My first football game in 6 months and a great way to spend a birthday!
