Llanneros took all three points from Deportivo Pasto with a 1-0 win in the sixth round of the Clausura. The visitors struck through Franck Castaneda in the 62nd minute, and by then the complexion of the match had already shifted. Two dismissals for the hosts in the final ten minutes turned what might have been a draw into a narrow away victory.
Castaneda's goal came after a period of sustained pressure from both sides. Pasto had edged possession at 51 per cent but could not find the target — their five attempts all flew wide. Llanneros were slightly less efficient from distance but kept their shot on target, and that difference mattered.
The turning point arrived in the closing stages. J. Pertuz received a second yellow card in the 67th minute, reducing Llanneros to ten men. Then N. Gil was sent off for Pasto in the 74th minute, and Y. Goez followed with two red cards in quick succession. And here's the thing — three dismissals in the final quarter changed everything.
On paper, the statistics suggest a closely contested affair. Both sides registered five shots off target. Pasto created one big chance against Llanneros' zero. Expected goals were almost identical at 0.61 and 0.60. But the match was decided in moments, not in sustained dominance.
For Pasto, the result keeps them in third place on 34 points after 19 games. For Llanneros, the win lifts them off the bottom but they remain 14th with 22 points. The visitors ended a run of two draws and one win, while the hosts suffered another defeat in their last three outings.
