Eduardo Méndez's explicit request to Santa Fe fans in Libertadores

The leader took advantage of his conversation with Win Sports to send a clear message for the upcoming Thursday commitment against Peñarol at El Campín: to avoid the traditional offensive chant that is often heard whenever the opposing goalkeeper restarts from his area, a behavior that has repeatedly led to economic sanctions for the club by Conmebol.
