The Chilean franchise Selknam started the American Rugby Super League in a great way this Tuesday by beating Cafeteros Pro by 35 to 12 in La Pintana.
With Matías Garafulic As a great figure of the match, the national team passed over its Colombian counterpart in the debut of both teams in the tournament.
Garafulic scored with four tries, while José Larenas and Matías Dittus also reached the ingoal zone of the Colombian team, which added 5 thanks to Facundo Pueyrredón and Jhon Urrutia.
In the other match, which gave the official opening of the tournament, Peñarol beat Olimpia Lions 40-11 and like Chile it added a bonus point.
Chilean Santiago Videla, who scored a conversion against Cafeteros, pointed out after the victory that “It was more than expected and it made it very difficult for us to see that we were very anxious to play after a year and that is why I think we made more mistakes than the that we expected to commit. Likewise, there is a lot of merit from Cafeteros Pro in this.
Selknam was in second place in the standings behind Peñarol, who achieved a greater difference against the Paraguayan team. The next challenge for the Chilean franchise will be against Olimpia Lions on Sunday.
