It is located in the penultimate position, the sixteenth, with only three points. During the first stage, the clearest occasions to unevenness were on 20 the ‘Reds’ and Cristian Palacios as the protagonist. At 24′, the Uruguayan pulled out a volley that found the great reaction of Fernando de Paul, who scored horizontally. Shortly after, at 34 minutes, Palacios took a headbutt in the middle of the ‘hot zone’ and the blue golero flew to his right to drown out the ‘Hispanic’ goal cry. The only in-depth arrival of the collegiate cast in the first stage reached 22′. Marcelo Cañete’s grand pass for Angelo Henríquez, who controlled inside the area and pulled out a punchline that Diego Sánchez cleared with his feet. In the add-on, the ‘U’ came out with everything in the first place and that allowed it to break zero in the O’Higgins redoubt. At 52 minutes and after a free kick, Joaquín Larrivey took off the mark with the control oriented and fired in mid-return to beat the ‘Mono’ Sánchez.Nine minutes after the opening of the account, at 61′, Jorge Pellicer’s squad reached parity. Juan Pablo Gómez climbed from the right, hooked and pulled out the left-handed center. Patricio Rubio and Cristian Palacios crouched down and De Paul failed to react. Soon after, after 65 minutes, the blues would unsurve again and this time definitively. Gonzalo Espinoza recovered a ball in the middle of the court and relented for Marcelo Cañete, who from long distance pulled a forehand that was glued to the left post of a static Diego Sánchez.By the fifth date of the tournament, the ‘U’ will visit on Sunday, April 25 at the Monumental Stadium to Colo Colo, in the ‘derby’, while Unión Española will visit Sports La Serena on Saturday 24.
