Matías Garafulic Schar (born 1 September 2000) is a professional rugby union player who plays as a centre for Super Rugby Americas club Selknam. Born in Santiago, he represents Chile at international level after qualifying on residency grounds.[1] [2]
He was part of the Chilean team that qualified for their first Rugby World Cup in 2022, upsetting the odds against Canada and the United States, as Garafulic scored a try in the last game of the Americas qualification against the latter, an historic away win that sealed their qualification for the 2023 World Cup.[3]
