Match Report
Coquimbo Unido delivered a dominant home performance at the Francisco Sánchez Rumoroso stadium, dismantling Deportes Tolima 3-0 on matchday 5 of the Copa Libertadores 2026. The Chilean side controlled the contest from start to finish, leaving their Colombian visitors without a single response.
Manuel Fernández broke the deadlock in the 26th minute, heading home a precise cross from Benjamín Chandía following a free kick. Cristian Zavala made it 2-0 in first-half stoppage time, finishing off a slick Guido Vadalá assist. Nicolás Johansen added the third on 55 minutes, pouncing on a rebound after Zavala's driving run down the right. The match had its VAR moments too — a Johansen penalty appeal was rejected in the 13th minute, and a Coquimbo effort was ruled offside in the 40th.
The victory shoots Coquimbo Unido to the top of their group, with qualification to the round of 16 now well within reach. Deportes Tolima, on the other hand, face a desperate final matchday if they hope to keep their continental campaign alive.
