- Universidad de Chile congratulated goalkeeper Gabriel Castellón on his 33rd birthday after the club's recent win over Coquimbo Unido.
- Supporters responded with sharply divided messages, with some praising his saves and others criticizing his performances.
A birthday greeting for Gabriel Castellón quickly exposed the divide among Universidad de Chile supporters. The club used its social media accounts to mark the goalkeeper's 33rd birthday, but the responses ranged from enthusiastic support to open frustration.
A great goalkeeper, I still support him.
Some fans praised Castellón's contribution and continued to back him. Messages included, “A great goalkeeper, I still support him,” “Happy birthday Gabriel, keep going,” and “Always on your boat.” Others highlighted his record during the championship, calling him “the goalkeeper who has kept a clean sheet the most times in this tournament” and thanking him for the occasions when he had saved the team.
Happy birthday Gabriel, keep going.
The reaction followed Universidad de Chile's victory over Coquimbo Unido in its most recent Primera Liga match. Despite that result, Castellón's performance did not satisfy everyone, and some supporters used the birthday post to make their dissatisfaction clear. The supplied report ends while beginning to detail the sharper criticism.
Always on your boat.
