Career
González began his professional career with Chilean club Colo-Colo in 1998. After four years with them, he joined Atlante F.C. for the 2002 Apertura ("Opening"). González scored 13 goals in 19 games in the Apertura, and added another 16 in 16 games in the Clausura ("Closing"). The next season, he scored six in the Apertura, and eight in the Clausura.[1] In Mexico, he became popular both for his prolific goal-scoring, as for his celebrations mimicking the Mexican comedic character "Chespirito".
During the 2004 Apertura, González added 12 goals in 17 games for Atlante F.C..
He played with Veracruz (Mexico) for Clausura 2007. He played for Olimpo in the Primera División Argentina, where he was transferred for the Apertura 2007. After several offers from the Primera "A" in Mexico, Chamagol signed with Tecos UAG and played in the Clausura 2008. In the Apertura 2008, Tecos made a trade to send Club León top goalscorer Freddy Bareiro in trade for Sebastian Gonzalez. He last played for Club León, as their captain before the 30 year old forward was loaned to Colo Colo on 6 February 2009.[2]
