The momentary closure of Date 22 left a more than important result for Everton. The gold and sky rose from the win against Unión La Calera last day and defeated Curicó Unido 2-0.
The muleteros played a perfect game, taking over the ball and being the ones who generated the most danger on the court. Martín Palermo’s pupils did not see one and missed the chance to get into the fight with the leaders.
A savior criminal
Everton did not want to be complicated as they did against the cement producers and immediately went out to press for an advantage, having clearer arrivals and control of the duel.
And the prize for the good game came in the 17 ‘minutes after a hand that the VAR accused, allowing the penalty that Juan Cuevas turned into a goal with a powerful shot that left Cerda with no chances.
Tackle and victory
In the complement Curicó Unido wanted to react to get up in the table, but what they did not expect was the surprising and suffocating pressure from the locals.
In just one minute of the second half, Juan Cuevas overflowed on the left and hit a great shot that closed until he entered Cerda’s arch. A bit that left the visit groggy, but that served as motivation to go for the discount.
And in ’70, after trying several times, they had a prize. After a rebound, Jens Buss took an unassailable shoe for Johnny Herrera. And although it was suspended due to the intervention of the VAR, it was confirmed for 2-1 on the scoreboard.
But the joy was short-lived since In the 74th minute and after a corner kick, Walter González was served with the ball to score a half volley and sentence the 3-1 in favor of the muleteros. And as if that were not enough, in 78 ‘the torteros lost Alex Ibacache by expulsion after a patacón to Echeverría.
With this result, Everton takes distance from the lower zone and is only two points behind Huachipato, the last classified so far in the Copa Sudamericana. For his part, Curicó Unido adds the first setback with Palermo on the bench and is moving away, for now, from the leadership of Chilean football.
