Colombia Wrap: Boyaca Chico drop off pace

Two points off top heading into the weekend, Boyaca Chico twice coughed up a lead to draw 2-2 at Atletico Nacional.

Francisco Rodriguez and Juan Perez had put Boyaca Chico ahead in the eighth and 60th minutes respectively, but equalisers from Elkin Calle and Sherman Cardenas helped salvage a point for Atletico.

Juan Cabezas' goal three minutes out from half-time was enough for Cali, who won their fifth game of the season.

Envigado led 1-0 after 83 minutes, but a red card to Andres Orozco was followed by a brace to Johan Arango to snap Once Caldas' winless streak of four matches in dramatic fashion.

Patriotas Boyaca made it three wins in succession, Marco Lazaga's 14th-minute goal the difference as they beat Uniautonoma 1-0.

Dairon Asprilla's goal powered Alianza Petrolera to a 1-0 win at Junior, Alianza now unbeaten in seven league games.
