Colo Colo rescued an agonizing draw in the first leg duel in the Chile Cup quarterfinals. El Cacique tied 2-2 against O’Higgins and now must define the key at home. However, it will not be able to count on one of its main figures like Arturo Vidal.
King started as a starter and again as captain, but he seemed to be over-revving at the El Teniente Stadium. What was revealed after Martín Sarrafiore’s great goal. The national midfielder was upset by the team’s low level and In his attempt to make his teammates react, he ended up earning a child yellow card.. A foul on Antonio Díaz predicted the worst.
In the complement Vidal was placed further ahead and approached his best version since he arrived in Colo Colo. However, the revolutions of the Two-time American Champion took their toll and in the 89th minute he ended up seeing the second yellow card.
Vidal misses the revenge
The central judge now saw a foul on Antonio Díaz and ended up sending off King who got upset and even caused one of those tole tole in the center of the field. The striking thing was that even Bichi Borghi questioned the warning and stressed on TNT Sports that the play in question “it was not for expulsion”.
Now Jorge Almirón must move the scheme for the revenge duel for the quarterfinals of the Regional Phase of the South Central Zone of the Chile Coca Cola Sin Azúcar Cup. I find that it is set for next Sunday, June 29 at the Monumental Stadium.
