In a tightly contested match in the Copa Chile, San Marcos de Arica fell to CD Cobresal in a game that tested the tactical acumen of both teams. CD Cobresal emerged victorious with a narrow 1-0 win, capitalizing on their slightly superior attacking efficiency. Despite both teams maintaining commendable discipline, with no red or yellow cards shown, it was Cobresal’s ability to convert one of their 4 shots on target that ultimately decided the outcome.

San Marcos de Arica struggled to penetrate the away team's defensive lines, with their attempts stifled by the formidable Cobresal defense, resulting in just 2 shots on target. This defensive resilience from Cobresal was further solidified by an impressive performance from their goalkeeper, who maintained a perfect save record. The Arica side, in contrast, lacked the finishing touch necessary to convert possession into meaningful goal-scoring opportunities, reflected in their inability to register a goal despite having more corner kicks, highlighting a missed opportunity to leverage set-piece situations.

The midfield battle was another key determinant in the match's outcome, as Cobresal exhibited more cohesive teamwork and tactical discipline in maintaining possession. Cobresal effectively used their substitutions to bolster their midfield, sustaining pressure and stifling San Marcos's forward momentum. While both teams avoided offsides, Cobresal’s superior passing accuracy and decision-making under pressure allowed them to control the tempo of the game, demonstrating a higher level of strategic execution that ultimately led to their solitary, match-winning goal.
