On Sunday afternoon, at the Augusto Rodríguez municipal stadium in San Vicente de Tagua Tagua, General Velásquez had its debut in the 2024 second division, hosting the always complicated Real San Joaquín.
The greens, who this year are once again coached by César Bustamante, played a very good first half, as they created several opportunities to open the scoring, such as the one Cristóbal Arriaza had in the 26th minute, where his definition was returned by the upright left of the visiting goal.
The young man trained at the U was close to scoring at the end of the initial stage, but a left-footed shot went just wide.
Of course, Velásquez began to get complicated in the 40th minute, when Kevin Serrano was sent off after hitting a rival who was lying on the grass with a ball.
But, in the second half, the goal was opened for the home team. In the 71st minute, a handball was sanctioned as a penalty by judge Emilio Bastías and from twelve steps Cristian Valenzuela scored to establish the partial 1-0.
Now, Real San Joaquín also had its own thing, because in the 77th minute, forward Hugo Toro wasted a penalty, which was blocked by goalkeeper Brandon Obregón.
And, when the game was already going (87′), Gerardo Collao – with a great goal from mid-distance – made it 1-1.
On the next date, the green team must travel to Los Andes, where on Sunday at 8 p.m. they will face San Antonio Unidos.
