National Championship
Colo Colo, following losing to Coquimbo Unido, must focus on what will be their next challenge for the National Championship which, for now, is once morest Magallanes.
Colo Colo once more lost important points at the Monumental Stadium following losing to Coquimbo Unido. El Cacique had a first half to forget and conceded 3 goals before going to rest, where the coffee was well loaded to try the comeback. This did not arrive and only a discount was found to close everything with a 3 to 2 once morest.
This setback will continue to spin in the heads of the entire squad this Monday. However, on Tuesday we have to turn the page and start thinking regarding the next challenge of the National Championship that faces the Albos once morest Magallanes for the seventh date of the Creole tournament.
Possible suspension of the match between Colo Colo and Magallanes
Without prejudice of the previous, there is a certain possibility that the engagement before the Manojito de Carnations might be suspended. This, because the Academy is playing the Copa Libertadores and, if they pass the phase (they already won the first leg 3-0 once morest Always Ready from Bolivia), they will have a very tight schedule, so They will request the ANFP to postpone the match once morest Colo Colo, which is dated March 5.
The option is being studied by the governing body of national football and, meanwhile, the captain of the Cacique, Stephen Pavez, spoke regarding the eventuality that the set is not played. In this regard, the Popular flyer stated that “The idea is always to support Chilean soccer in international cups”.
Of course, despite supporting the request of the albiceleste team, he hit the national leaders with a stick flower. It is that according to Pavez, “I wish the same thing had happened to us last year when we were in the cup. The ANFP has never helped us a bit like Colo Colo. I always prioritize international competition. If they want to suspend it, it would have to be done for the good of Chilean soccer. In Colo Colo, nothing ever happened to me like that a game has been postponed, but that happens through the leaders. I just think that we have to support Chilean football”.
The Superclásico in sight
If Magallanes’ idea prospers, Colo Colo’s next commitment would be once morest the University of Chile on March 12. Despite the proximity of the Superclásico, Huesi pointed out that “the classic is still missing. We are aware of the moment we are going through. For the classic there is still a long way to go, beyond being classic, there are three points and it is worth the same as any game”.
For now, the Cacique will visit the San Bernardo team on Sunday, March 5, starting at 6:00 p.m. in a stadium to be defined. All the details can be found LIVE and ONLINE through DaleAlbo.cl.
