In the first round of the playoffs, U. de Concepción upset Universidad Católica. In the second leg of the semifinal against Audax Italiano, the number one seed, U. de Concepción was on the verge of elimination when Lorenzetti scored an amazing goal to qualify U. de Concepción to the final against Colo-Colo.
