Colo Colo and Audax Italiano will be one of the matches that will start the thirteenth round of the 2023 National Championship. The whites will face the Italians in a Monumental Stadium that will have its doors closed to the public because it will serve its second game of sanction for the incidents of the Superclásico.
The thirteenth date of the contest in Chilean soccer will begin tomorrow, Tuesday, where the referee appointments for each of the matches have already been defined. The one who will be in charge of imparting sports justice in the duel of the Cacique will be Mr. José Cabero.
First time that he will direct Colo Colo in the year

He is a card referee, since, in the eight games that he has been present in the contest, adds the totality of 23 yellow cards and one expulsion. The latter occurred in the tie between O’Higgins and Curicó Unido in Rancagua, where he penalized Juan Fuentes with a direct red card.
Those who will be accompanying José Cabero at the Monumental will be Juan Serrado and Carlos Poblete as his assistants. The fourth referee will be Mr. Felipe Jara, while Rodrigo Carvajal and Reinerio Alvarado will be in the VAR.

On that occasion he showed the number of five yellow cards, three in the white box and two in the Rancaguino team.
