A bit of history
The Cruzados of Las Condes were runners-up in 1993, the last Chilean club to reach a Libertadores final. They have sung their anthem 'Por la Patria, Dios y la Universidad' since 1942.
Fun fact
They have a brand-new home: the Claro Arena, rebuilt for around 50 million dollars, and they sold out 14,000 season tickets for 2026. Chilean excitement is sky-high.
Why follow them
They won all three away games in their group, including a 1-0 at the Bombonera that knocked Boca out. Zampedri scores, Gary Medel brings the experience.
