Magallanes makes history with his first victory in the National Championship, surprising Unión Española while waiting for the Colo Colo match to be played on the weekend.
The fifth date of the 2023 National Championship began, which has attractive duels for all soccer fans. While Colo Colo waits for his turn to play the match against Everton de Viña del Mar, he watches how the path of Creole football develops and expects a fall from those who are higher up.

When everything was the same, Quinteros appeared again. After a rude mistake by Jason Flores, who tried to play with Fabián Cerda, the striker took advantage of the opportunity and, in the 78th minute, scored his second personal goal and the final 2-1 for León de Atacama to celebrate its first First Division win.
The day of the fifth date continued at the Estadio Bicentenario de La Florida with the confrontation between Spanish Union and Magellan. The albiceleste team surprised the Hispanics as a visitor, whom they defeated 2-1 with scores by Thomas Jones and an own goal by Luis Pavez, with which they added their first victory of the tournament this season of Chilean soccer. The discount came through Ignacio Núñez.
