Puerto Montt secured a narrow 86:84 victory over Colo-Colo in the LNB on 6 September 2026, extending their recent advantage in this fixture. The two sides have now met twice this season, with Puerto Montt winning both encounters. They sit level in the table after twelve matches each.
And here's the thing — this wasn't a match decided by one explosive period. Both teams traded blows throughout, with neither side able to pull clear decisively. Puerto Montt had already shown their hand three days earlier with a 74:67 win, so this result followed a pattern rather than defying one.
Colo-Colo dominated the boards with 42 rebounds against 38, including 34 on the defensive end. Puerto Montt proved more efficient from distance, hitting 11 of 29 three-point attempts compared to 8 of 27 for the hosts. The visitors also took more shots overall — 80 to 68 — while turning the ball over less frequently (14 versus 16).
The free-throw line told another story. Colo-Colo attempted 27 from the stripe, converting 20, while Puerto Montt made 11 of 14. That difference in clutch shooting, combined with their three-point edge, meant the visitors found their margin. To be fair, the hosts' shot-blocking was more effective with 10 blocks to 1, but it couldn't prevent Puerto Montt from finding their rhythm.
The result leaves both teams level at 12 points from 12 games, still in fifth place. No movement in the standings, but Puerto Montt have now proved they can beat Colo-Colo twice in a short span. By then, the visitors will have carried that momentum into their next fixture.
