Match14 Aug 2027

Colo-Colo come up short against Huachipato

Huachipato left with the points after a 1‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

The dugout16 Aug 2027

No hiding place for Brayan Cortés

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Brayan Cortés, and the manager let it.

Squad16 Aug 2027

Words at Colo-Colo training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Christofer Gonzáles is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The dugout16 Aug 2027

Francisco Sagal faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Francisco Sagal after 1‑2, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

Squad16 Aug 2027

Erick Bravo signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Erick Bravo and Colo-Colo agree another 3 years.

Market16 Aug 2027

Colo-Colo put Claudio Aquino up for sale

The list is a quiet document with a loud meaning. Claudio Aquino may talk to anybody who asks, and everybody at the club understands what that means.

Squad16 Aug 2027

Erick Bravo in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Colo-Colo this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The dugout16 Aug 2027

Colo-Colo pick somebody else ahead of Fernando De Paul

There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.

The dugout16 Aug 2027

Mathias Pinto gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Mathias Pinto is on it.

Match28 Jul 2027

Mathias Pinto sends Colo-Colo through

Cup ties wait for somebody to seize them, and Mathias Pinto obliged against Union Espanola. 3‑1 on the night, and the name in the next round’s hat is Colo-Colo.

Market2 Aug 2027

Erick Wiemberg asks to leave Colo-Colo

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Player ratings2 Aug 2027

Jerall Astudillo, 21, plays like he has been here for years — 8.02

A mark of 8.02 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 21-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Squad2 Aug 2027

Tempers go at Colo-Colo

Tomás Alarcón was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Transfer targets2 Aug 2027

Door shut on Lautaro Palacios

Colo-Colo asked and Deportes Copiapó said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

The terraces2 Aug 2027

Colo-Colo supporters have found a favourite in Jerall Astudillo

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 21-year-old it feels ownership of. Jerall Astudillo has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Match31 Jul 2027

Colo-Colo come up short against Coquimbo Unido

Coquimbo Unido left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

One of our own: Erick Bravo joins the Colo-Colo first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Erick Bravo is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market2 Aug 2027

Nicolas Maripan steps up from the Colo-Colo academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Nicolas Maripan has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
