In 1979, again Cobreloa ended up in second place, but 1980 would turn orange as Cobreloa -in a very tight competition with Universidad de Chile- finally was able to reach the top.
In 1984 Cobreloa could have gotten its 3rd championship (in the general standings, it was the best), but changes in the rules determined that definition games should be played between the 1st and 2nd teams in the North Group (Cobreloa and Cobresal) and 1st and 2nd teams South Group (U. Catolica and Palestino).
Cobreloa was not doing well and, again, in 1995 it ended in 5th place.
