Santiago Wanderers took a narrow 2-1 victory over Magallanes at the Regular Season-23 fixture in the Primera B on Friday evening. The hosts held firm after a late flurry from the visitors, with three goals across the final ten minutes deciding a match where neither side could quite pull away.
Wanderers saw the first goal of the evening when S. Coronel found the net in the 81st minute, but Magallanes responded almost immediately through J. Luna eight minutes later. The visitors then added a third in stoppage time via M. Camarda, though the official result stood at 2-1 to the home side.
The match saw an unusually busy second half, with eight substitutions taking place between the 46th and 90th minutes. Wanderers brought on B. Martinez and F. Yanez at the break, while Magallanes used their changes more sparingly before the late drama unfolded.
On the statistics, both teams shared possession evenly at 50 percent, but Magallanes generated more attacks with 120 to Wanderers' 111. The hosts had the edge in shots on target with five, compared to three from the visitors, though Magallanes managed four corners to Wanderers' two.
