Two travels in a row for Española, whose manager R. Fuentes Núñez could celebrate last time after the Primera Division win against Curicó Unido. A loss against Coquimbo Unido was the result prior to that, in a home game.

As you can tell from the result, the match against Curicó Unido was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?
