Curicó Unido disciplinary sanction

Overview

The ANFP Discipline Tribunal issued a three-point deduction to the Chilean football club Curicó Unido for failing to meet mandatory youth player participation requirements. During the first half of the 2026 Primera B season, the club recorded only 909 minutes for U-21 players, falling 36 minutes short of the 945 minutes required by competition rules.

Curicó Unido initially announced its intention to appeal the sanction, pledging to strengthen internal procedures. The club argued that two players, Lucas López and Diego Avendaño, should have accounted for 90 minutes toward the requirement due to their call-ups to the Chilean national team for the South American U-17 championship. However, the Tribunal rejected the appeal and upheld the original three-point penalty.
