Dayro Moreno drives Once Caldas' Copa BetPlay scoring surge

Thirty‑nine‑year‑old striker Dayro Moreno remains a key goal threat for Once Caldas in the 2026 Copa BetPlay. In the tournament's opening stage he has netted 11 goals in three matches, providing the firepower the club needs to chase its first title. Moreno, a veteran of Nacional and Millonarios, combines experience, positional sense and leadership under coach Hernán Darío Herrera, helping the Manizales side compete at the highest level despite his age. His continued form highlights his status as one of Colombia’s most prolific forwards and fuels the team’s ambition to finally win the cup after two previous final defeats.
