2008 Torneo Clausura (Chile)

The 2008 Campeonato Nacional Clausura Copa Banco Estado was the 84th Chilean League top flight, in which Colo-Colo won its 28th league title after beating Palestino in the finals. The format is the same as the Apertura tournament, but the field was reduced from 20 teams to 19 since Deportes Concepción withdrew before the start of the tournament due to financial problems.
