Vozinha began his Primera League career with a clean sheet, helping Colo-Colo draw 0-0 with Huachipato in Concepción on the 22nd matchday.
The Cape Verdean goalkeeper, whose full name is Josimar Évora Dias, has now gone two matches without conceding. He had previously kept a clean sheet in his Copa Chile debut against Unión Española, a match Colo-Colo won 3-0 on Aug. 26.
His only moment of real danger came just before halftime. Vozinha misjudged an aerial cross, and Arturo Vidal had to clear the ball off the goal line. The incident ultimately did not count because the play ended with an offside decision.
Vozinha was first called up for the Superclásico against Universidad de Chile on Aug. 23, but Fernando Ortiz did not select him for that match. He also remained on the bench during Colo-Colo’s 5-1 win over Audax Italiano before receiving his opportunity against Huachipato.
