Argentina’s U-20 Ascenso National Team, coached by Claudio Gugnali, got off to a strong start in its official campaign by defeating Bolivia 3-1. The national side looked solid in its debut, but for the red-and-black world, the standout news was the presence of Colón’s three call-ups in the squad.

Santino González, Gabriel Lovato, and Valentino Albornoz are part of this delegation representing the country in the tournament. The young Sabalero players are looking to gain international experience and reaffirm the strong work being done in the youth ranks of the Santa Fe club.

In the opening match, the Albiceleste’s goals were scored by Uriel Pepe, Mateo Arrieta, and Juan Aimale, earning Gugnali’s team its first three points in this tournament being held in Panama.

What’s next for the boys

After the win over Bolivia, the national team’s schedule offers no break. The path ahead for Colón’s youngsters continues as follows (Argentina time):

  • Wednesday, April 15: vs. Paraguay (4:00 PM) at Rommel Fernández Stadium.
  • Friday, April 17: vs. Panama (9:00 PM) at Rommel Fernández Stadium.
  • Sunday, April 19: Finals day for the Gold and Bronze medals.

With an ideal start, the group’s goal is to reach Sunday’s final and fly the flag of Ascenso football high and, of course, uphold the pride of Colón’s youth academy.
