Meanwhile, each second place would need to face a team that finished third in their Libertadores group. And these matchups were defined thanks to the performance of each of the 16 teams. The team with the best performance among those who finished second in their Sudamericana group would face the worst third place from the Libertadores. And so on. Mushuc Runa (ECU), Huracán, Universidad Católica (ECU), Fluminense, Independiente, Godoy Cruz, Lanús, and Cienciano led their respective groups. Advertisement And they are just waiting. 📊 The classification of each "pot" is as follows: Second places in the Sudamericana: Grêmio - 12 points and four goal difference Once Caldas - 12 points and two goal difference Atlético Mineiro - 9 points and five goal difference Palestino (CHI) - 9 points and zero goal difference América de Cali - 8 points and two goal difference Vasco - 8 points and zero goal difference Guaraní (PAR) - 8 points and minus three goal difference.

📝 Arturo Vidal scores from the spot as Colo Colo see off La Calera
📝 Arturo Vidal scores from the spot as Colo Colo see off La Calera It was a discreet game that Colo Colo played at the Estadio Municipal Nicolás Chahuán Nazar, but it was enough to add a new victory in the Liga de Primera 2025. The team of Jorge Almirón, who was not on the sidelines due to a sanction, had to resist in the first minutes, when Unión La Calera seemed more determined to have the ball and attack. The first half hour of play was intense and disputed, but without great chances in the goals. Colo Colo defeated La Calera by the minimum Without being able to practically shoot at the rival goal throughout the first half, near the end of that first half Lucas Cepeda fell in the rival area, and after verifying the foul in the VAR, the referee awarded the penalty to Cacique. Advertisement Their captain, Arturo Vidal, took care of the execution and gave the advantage to Colo Colo, which would be definitive. With this victory, Colo Colo reached 17 points in 10 games played, to climb to ninth place in the table, and remain 9 points away from the leaders, Coquimbo Unido and Audax Italiano. The Whites still have three pending games (against Iquique, corresponding to the 8th date, and the classics against U de Chile and Universidad Católica), so virtually, in case of winning them, they would be reaching the top of the table. The duel against the Cementeros also left a bad news for Colo Colo and for Jorge Almirón: the concern about the possible injury of Sebastián Vegas. Advertisement The central defender suffered a hard blow in the first half, and although he wanted to continue in the game, he could not. He was replaced by Jonathan Villagra at 20 minutes of play.
