The Bogotá Football Commission sanctioned Independiente Santa Fe, América de Cali and their fan groups following a violent confrontation at the Nemesio Camacho El Campín stadium on August 22.[^3] The commission's ruling affects both clubs and extends to supporters on either side of the clash.

América de Cali's popular fan groups Barón Rojo Sur and Disturbio Rojo are prohibited from entering Bogotá stadiums carrying flags or instruments for 20 dates.[^4] Disturbio Rojo faces the same 20-match restriction specifically for América de Cali matches played in the capital.[^6] Beyond the fan bans, the cities of Bogotá and Ibagué have closed their stadiums entirely to América de Cali for home matches as a result of fan conduct.[^2]

The read here is that América de Cali, based in Valle del Cauca, now faces a compounding problem: not only are its most organized supporter groups barred from following the club in Bogotá, but two cities have shut their gates to the club outright, shrinking the venues available to it outside its home department.
