The Chilean team takes the victory in the last breath
The Chilean team took the victory in the last breath of the match in the Albirroja Night 2023. Although the event was organized by the locals, it was the merengues who dominated a large part of the match and had unbeatable opportunities to score and take the victory, but finally they could not make it happen. However, Curicó struck at the right moment and took the triumph against Universitario de Deportes.
The last minutes of the match were being played when Yerko Leiva received a deep pass, settled himself, and made a precise center for Felipe Fritz to appear unexpectedly, outsmart all the cream defenders, and head the shot that would finally defeat goalkeeper Diego Romero, who played in place of captain José Carvallo.
