NOTE 1:  Amazing very hunted 1989 design jersey with "V" collar , withness on the pitch when a flare rises from the stands of the stadium, which explodes between two to three meters near Rojas, who collapses and is enveloped by the smoke emanating from the flare. The Chilean players begin to approach Rojas, while the smoke dissipates, finding the goalkeeper with both his face and his shirt bloodied. Immediately, the Chilean players  decided to leave the field arguing that there were no guarantees to continue with the game. Finally a whole generation of footballers missed not only the 1990 World Cup but also the 1994 World Cup qualy
