El Cacique debuted in the 2023 season with a loss against Deportes Magallanes for the Super Cup. The party, in addition to all the historical components, left an image that caught the attention of more than one colocolino.
Colo Colo did not start its 2023 season in a good way. In penalty kicks, the cast led by Gustavo Quinteros fell to Deportes Magallanes and was unable to raise a new Super Cup for their showcases.
The party was charged by historical condiments. The rivalry, and respect, between Albos and Albicelestes is long-standing and from the beginning, different canvases were seen alluding to the bond that both groups have. In addition, a not minor detail was the one that could be seen on the pitch and that is that Esteban Pavez He carried a captain’s horsemanship that brought back memories to many.
The details of the new rider of the captain of Colo Colo
When Pavez entered the field and his bracelet was seen, many automatically thought of Marcelo Espina. A classic, sober style and with colors characteristic of the horse used by the Squid in the championship in bankruptcy.
And it was not something casual or circumstantial, it is that, for this season and as Dale Albo could have known, Colo Colo captains will use reissued shoulder straps. This, the first, of the championship in bankruptcy in 2002 and the other, hopes to be a new edition of the one held by Jaime Pizarro in the 1991 Copa Libertadores.
Its white and red color stands out with the legend “Captain”, accompanied by the player’s number (8 in the case of Pavez who, paradoxically, was the same as Espina). In addition to the Chilean flag posted on one side and the Colo Colo shield at the top, you can distinguish the name of the children of the player who wears the ribbon.
But that’s not all, because in addition to the three stars present on the front, the following legend reads on the back: “Team of the people / Araucanian blood / strength, claw, passion / God bless those who defend this shirt. To die for the Colo”, combining the harangue created (by Lamark, the brand that creates the jinetas) for the captains since Arturo Sanhueza and the mythical phrase stamped on the shirt from 2002.
Brayan Cortés also has his horsewoman
As we mentioned before, the riders will be the same for the captains, with Brayan Cortés being second in command. Thus, as we were able to observe thanks to the mark made by the genets, the Indian also has his. It is identical to that of Pavez, although, of course, the names of his children and his figure on the back stand out.
It should be remembered that Esteban Pavez is suspended for the match against Deportes Copiapó for the first date of the National Championship, so we will be able to see the man from Iquiqueño in action as the brand new captain of Colo Colo.
