2 min read

Internacional de Bogotá and América de Cali meet in the first leg of their Copa BetPlay semifinal on Tuesday, 10 November 2026, at the Metropolitano de Techo in Bogotá. Kick-off is at 6:30 p.m. local time in Colombia, and the match will be broadcast on Win+ Fútbol and Win Play.

José Ortiz, from Norte de Santander, is the referee, with Mauricio Pérez from Antioquia assisting on VAR.

Inter looking to build toward Conmebol

For Internacional, the cup is the main route to a Conmebol tournament in 2027. The club’s league campaign has ended, so the Copa is now its main target, and coach Ricardo Valiño’s side knows what is at stake.

Their most recent outing was a 2-1 defeat to Boyacá Chicó on 6 November at the La Independencia stadium in Tunja. Inter had taken the lead through an own goal from Cristian Blanco in the 33rd minute, but Juan Díaz struck in the 44th minute and converted a penalty in the 59th to win it for the hosts. Before that, Inter’s last Copa BetPlay match had been a 4-1 win over Llaneros on 15 October. They came from behind that day, with goals from Ronaldo Julio, Facundo Boné (penalty), Cristian Dájome and Johan Caballero.

América arrive after a goalless derby

América de Cali, nicknamed the Diablos Rojos, come into the tie off a 0-0 draw with Deportivo Cali in the Valle derby on 7 November at the Pascual Guerrero. The result kept the rivals level at the top of the league table in a match that struggled for rhythm.

América’s recent form includes a 4-0 win over Barranquilla FC in the Copa on 21 October, and the team will be aiming to take a result back to Cali for the second leg.
