National Championship
El Cacique is already in the north of our country to face Cobresal on a new date of the National Championship. The Colo Colo coach has practically defined his team, where he ratifies the substitution of Maximiliano Falcón and includes Darío Lezcano in the offensive.
Date 9 of the 2023 National Championship is already underway and this Saturday it is Colo Colo’s turn to jump onto the pitch. At the El Cobre stadium in El Salvador, the Albos will face Cobresal with the mission of rescuing three points that will allow them to climb the position table of the Chilean tournament.
The tie once morest Universidad de Chile did not leave anyone happy in Macul and, for this reason, they come to this match with full confidence in playing a good game, following the work of the week. So, Gustavo Quinteros will not change the team that faced the Superclásico, except for a player up front due to Leandro Benegas’ injury.
Darío Lezcano debuts as a starter in Colo Colo
The former Independiente player has some physical discomfort that prevents him from fully playing football. For the same, the Popular coach lined up Darío Lezcano among the headlines and will be in charge of commanding the attack of the Eternal Champion, hoping to continue with his good record in front of goal.
In this way, the probable formation of Colo Colo to face Cobresal would be made up of Brian Cortes in the arch, César Fuentes, Matías de los Santos, Ramiro González and Erick Wiemberg in defence; Vicente Pizarro, Esteban Pavez and Leonardo Gil in midfield; Marcos Bolados, Fabián Castillo and Dario Lezcano on offense.
Damian Pizarro’s chance
The Cacique youth squad is having a dream year. At his young age, he already stands out in youth football and, in addition, he began to rub shoulders with the first team, where already has a large number of goals in friendlies that take place behind closed doors. In this way, and thanks to the loss of Benegas, the youth will have the opportunity to be summoned and, why not, add minutes on the pitch.
Colo Colo and Cobresal will face each other this Saturday, March 18, starting at 6:00 p.m. at the El Cobre Stadium in El Salvador. You can follow all the details LIVE and ONLINE through DaleAlbo.cl.
