"With a couple of amazing goals from Alexis and another one from Edu, the Roja scratched Uruguay's buttocks and we are going full speed towards the World Cup," says the text on the striking cover.
An epic cover, where each headline gives a lot of play: "This time, Jara measured Ramírez's oil, but with respect," they title alongside a photo showing Jara with his hand on the lower back of the Uruguayan player.
This is the cover of La Cuarta newspaper.
Regarding the match, Alexis Sánchez unleashed his arsenal, punished Uruguay, and guided Chile to a victory that restored the lost confidence to the champion of America, who, after months of drought, straightened their path in the labyrinth of the Qualifiers towards Russia 2018.
The 'Roja' lived their dream night at the Nacional Stadium in Santiago, where they recovered from Edinson Cavani's early goal (16) with Eduardo Vargas's equalizer at the end of the first half and sealed their fate in the second half with Alexis's brace.
