The former star of the Chilean team and idol of Colo Colo, Carlos Caszely, was on the Radio ADN show Los Tenores this Thursday. During the conversation, the former king of the square meter recalled one of his great anecdotes…
Identified in the history of the cacique and written in gold letters, Caszely put on the shirt University of Chile to play a game, and he even scored a blue-clad goal against Católica.
“I scored a goal and celebrated it with the crossbar,” said Caszely, remembering the game with the U on his chest against the Albos.
Of course, it is worth considering that Carlos Caszely defended the U against Católica in a friendly in 1988, two years after his retirement from Guayaquil in Barcelona.
And it was not a confrontation per se between the U and the UC, but a friendly game between television stations from Channel 13 and Teleonce (Chilevisión), which were then dependent on the study houses of the Universidad Católica and the Universidad de Chile, respectively.
Which teams did Carlos Caszely play on?
In addition to the Chilean team, Carlos Caszely defended the jerseys of Colo Colo, Levante, Espanyol and Barcelona from Ecuador.
How many goals did Carlos Caszely score with the Chilean team?
