not considered an official title by the Dimayor.
NB: the tournament was resurrected as additional part of the league;
attendances were low (averaging less than 500) and matches were
played at unusual venues: La Dorada, Riosucio, Cartago, Anserma,
Piedecuesta, Sogamoso, Popayán, and Millonarios' training field.
NB: draws were decided by penalty shoot-out with the winners obtaining
2 points and the losers none (as for normal wins and losses)
