Vozinha Wins Chilean League Title With Colo-Colo After Dramatic Finale

Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha has been crowned a champion in Chile after helping Colo-Colo secure the 2026 Liga de Primera title with a dramatic 2–1 victory over Ñublense.

The 40-year-old goalkeeper played a crucial role in the title-clinching match, producing a decisive save in the final moments to preserve Colo-Colo’s lead and prevent Ñublense from finding a late equaliser.

Colo-Colo took the lead through Arturo Vidal before Ñublense levelled the score. Marcos Bolados then scored the decisive goal in stoppage time to put Colo-Colo back in front and move the club beyond reach at the top of the table.

Vozinha was then called into action in the 97th minute, making an important save to protect the 2–1 advantage and secure the championship for his team.

The victory gave Colo-Colo their 35th Chilean league title, with the club securing the championship with three matches still remaining. The triumph also guarantees their place in the 2027 Copa Libertadores.

For Vozinha, the achievement represents the first professional title of his career. The goalkeeper joined Colo-Colo after his impressive performances for Cape Verde at the 2026 World Cup and has now added a major trophy to a memorable year.

Following the celebrations, Vozinha dedicated the achievement to his family, Cape Verde, his teammates and the Colo-Colo supporters. His contract runs until the end of the year, with his future at the club yet to be decided.

At 40, Vozinha has added another remarkable chapter to his career — becoming a champion in Chile and playing a decisive role when Colo-Colo needed him most.
