Colón and Barracas Central share spoils at Predio 4 de Junio | OneFootball

Colón's reserve team had a new opportunity to get into the playoff conversation, but once again took a short step. It was a 1-1 draw against Barracas Central, at the Sabalero grounds, for the 8th round of the Torneo Proyección Clausura. A draw that adds up, yes, but doesn't quite push the team towards the qualifying spots.

The start was promising. At 15 minutes, Iván Ojeda —the team's most in-form forward— seized his moment and put Sabalero ahead. But the joy was short-lived. Just two minutes later, Bruno Valdez scored the equalizer for the visitors, in what was practically their first serious advance.

The result left the team with 11 points, after 2 wins, 5 draws, and 2 losses. And although the distance to the playoff zone is minimal —just one point— the feeling is that draws are no longer enough. They need to make that leap that has yet to come.

Colón: Gian Piaggio; Santiago García, Luca Campagnaro, Nazareno Luque, Brian Peralta, Ramiro Soperez, Mateo Lizondo, Thiago Barría, Lucas Genolet, Iván Ojeda, and Ignacio Sinturión. Coach: Martín Minella.

Barracas Central: Juan Insúa; Ayron Araoz, Juan Vilchez, Lautaro Bilbao, Oziel Gorosito, Nehuén Kruger, Lucas Villagra, Leandro Ballota, Tobía Cubilla, Martín Ferreyra, and Bruno Valdez. Coach: Jorge Ortiz.
