Carlos Palacios was sent off by Héctor Jona once the match was over and he will not be able to be part of the squad for the duel against Everton.
An exciting match took place at the Monumental Stadium. Colo Colo searched for victory throughout the match and found it near the end. Of course, when everything was happiness for the three units, the expulsion of Carlos Palacios made the day a bit bitter.
El Popular suffered throughout the game, as they could not find the opening of the account. Although the minutes passed, the Albos insisted, while little by little the rival took refuge. At the same time, Tempers were heating up among the players due to the sanctioned fouls and those not charged by the referee, Héctor Jona.
After Darío Lazcano’s goal, at minute 88, which unleashed euphoria and madness at the Monumental, there were more frictions between the footballers that brought consequences. After the final whistle, the discussions started again and while some players tried to calm the situation, the match judge expelled both Patricio Rubio and Palacios.
In this way, Gustavo Quinteros, who will not be present in the duel against the Viñamarinos, where he will serve his punishment, will have to rearm the summons, since Palacios, according to what the Disciplinary Tribunal determines, until now only said commitment will be lost.
The expulsion of the new Cacique reinforcement was not an impediment for the Eternal Champion to celebrate three gold points, after the hard fall in El Teniente de Rancagua against O’Higgins. Victory allows you to those of Quinteros add six units, where there is still a game left against Huachipato in the south of the country, which must be rescheduled by the ANFP.
The match against Everton is scheduled for next Sunday, January 19 at the Monumental Stadium from 8:30 p.m.. El Cacique will look for his second victory in La Ruca and continue to recover ground in the standings.
