GUANGZHOU, China, Sept. 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- On September 4th in the city of Talca, Chile, fans across the nation watched as GAC MOTOR transports the Copa Chile trophy to the final match of the national football tournament.
The gleaming silver trophy was personally couriered to the stadium in Talca in a GS4 by the president of Chilean professional football league, Yamal Rajab.
"We are very excited about this moment, and we have been waiting for it since the Cup began," said Nicolás Piracés, the general manager of GAC MOTOR in Chile. "Football is a passion of all Chileans, and we are happy that GAC MOTOR is part of this sport, which unites all Chileans."
GAC MOTOR's sponsorship deal of the tournament, topped off with this weekend's events, brings immense brand visibility and goes a long way to cementing GAC MOTOR's presence in the successful Chilean market.
The Copa Chile, or Chilean Cup, is organized by the National Professional Football Association of Chile (ANFP) and is one of the most representative and important national-level tournaments. The challenging conditions of last year's pandemic meant that the 2020 tournament was cancelled. Football fans in Chile have been waiting twice the time for this year's games.
In the past two months, 31 teams have fought fiercely for the championship. On September 4, after a competitive 90-minute contest between Colo Colo and Everton, Colo Colo won the 2021 Chile Cup with a score of 2:0.
