1-0 Victory Extends Cobreloa's Unbeaten Streak
Match Highlights and Analysis
In a closely contested Primera B encounter, Cobreloa emerged triumphant with a 1-0 victory over Puerto Montt on Sunday. The match, held at the Estadio Zorros del Desierto, saw both teams display determination and skill, but it was Cobreloa who ultimately secured the win.
The lone goal of the match came in the 20th minute, courtesy of Cobreloa's star striker, Jose Gastón Leiva. Leiva's clinical finish proved to be the decisive moment as Puerto Montt struggled to find an equalizer throughout the remainder of the match.
