Curicó Unido defeated by 3-2 to Catholic University this Wednesday, in the duel they completed and was pending date 15, when it was interrupted last October by a fire and blackout at La Granja Stadium.
The match was 2-0 in favor of the torteros, and in just over 40 minutes it was full of emotions, highlighting the penalty with which the match was resumed, since the referee Nicolás Gamboa ordered it to be repeated twice, and in the third attempt the UC obtained its discount.
This duel had its first half on October 15 and was played at night, with Curicó Unido dominating a crossed cast that had no clarity or order in its formation. The goals in that day were of Pablo Parra (28 ‘), absent this Wednesday for being cited in the selection, and Federico Castro (41 ‘), both from the cal point.
The second half, which was interrupted by the accident in the stadium, continued from minute 49 and with a penalty in favor of Universidad Católica, for an infraction that Gastón Lezcano had received.
The person in charge of kicking the penalty was Luciano Aued, who entered for the absent César Pinares, who left for Gremio. The Argentine shot with his left foot and goalkeeper Fabián Cerda saved. But nevertheless, the referee Gamboa ordered the execution to be repeated, why the goal was ahead.
Fernando Zampedri took the ball and shot the second penalty, Y Cerda stopped him again. But Gamboa again canceled it, since Cerda came forward again.
Finally, on the third attempt, the “Bull” of the crusaders decreed the discount. It was 2-1 in the 55th minute.
Despite closing the gap, the same dynamic of the first half that was played in October was maintained: Ariel Holan’s team found no answers to the order of the Curican team, who did not have technician Nicolás Larcamón on the bench (quarantined in Argentina for positive Covid-19).
In the epilogue, the regulation time is over, Curicó Unido increased its advantage in another controversial action. Harding fell in the area for lack of German Lanaro, and the referee charged a penalty and sent off the defender from La Franja for a second yellow. However, before the defense claims, Gamboa reviewed the play in the VAR: Validated the foul in the area and annulled the warning / expulsion of the UC player.
From the 12 steps, Castro finished safely and decreed e 3-1 (90 + 1 ‘).
When it looked like the match ended 3-1, Zampedri awakened the crossed illusion with another discount, but time ran out and the game ended 3-2 in favor of Curicó Unido.
With the result, Curicó Unido climbed to fifth place in the table, with 27 points, displacing U. de Chile to the sixth. UC, on the other hand, continues with 39 points at the top of the tournament.
On the next date, the first of the second round, UC will receive Cobresal in San Carlos, while Curicó will visit Sports Iquique.
