Colo Colo's Good News

Colo Colo's team received good news after finding out on Wednesday that defensive midfielder Claudio Baeza will be able to play in the next Copa Libertadores challenge against Atlético Nacional. This match is crucial for Colo Colo's qualification as they must win.

Yesterday, coach Héctor Tapia lamented the yellow card received by the player at the 82nd minute of the match, when they were already winning 2-0 against Bolívar from Bolivia at Monumental Stadium.

With this new caution, the midfielder was automatically ruled out due to accumulated yellow cards for the challenge that will take place next Thursday in Medellín.

However, today Conmebol sent the referee's report from the match, Brazilian Sandro Ricci, which detailed that the yellow card had actually been given to Gonzalo Fierro.

Thus, "Tito" has one less problem for next week's match, although the presence of "Mago" Jorge Valdivia is still in doubt. Valdivia left the field injured at the 61st minute, being replaced by Uruguayan Octavio Rivero.
