San Miguel is already focused on tomorrow’s match against Colón, in another round of the Primera Nacional. The Los Polvorines side comes into it with the momentum of an important 2-0 win over Colegiales and will look to build on that result to keep moving away from the danger zone in the standings.
In the lead-up to the match, Santiago Echeverría took an in-depth look at the current state of the Trueno Verde and explained that the club’s institutional and financial situation directly shaped its sporting expectations for this season.
The sharp budget cut compared to the previous tournament forced San Miguel to rethink its objectives. Although at the start of the season there was hope of fighting for a place in the Reducido, the squad building and the course of the competition led the club to make survival its top priority.
At present, San Miguel has 29 points and remains outside the direct relegation zone, although it needs to keep picking up points to avoid trouble in the final stretch of the competition. In that context, the match against Colón represents another opportunity to put some distance between itself and the bottom spots.
On the football side, the arrival of Módolo is aimed at giving greater stability to a team that racked up a significant number of draws for much of the tournament. The recent 2-0 win over Colegiales brought relief and allowed the team to approach its next commitment with greater confidence.
Looking ahead to the clash with the Sabalero, the coach would stick with the same lineup that earned the victory. Sappa will be in goal; Adín, Rentería, Cardozo and Cruz will make up the back line; Brochero, Ferrero, Iván Ramírez and Serra will be in midfield; while Gustavo Fernández and Bruno Nasta will form the attacking duo.
One of the names to watch will be Bruno Nasta. The forward went through a difficult period due to various injuries and the contractual situation stemming from the debt San Miguel still owes Racing de Córdoba for his transfer. Now fully fit again, Nasta returned to the starting lineup against Colegiales and will once again have the responsibility of leading the attack against Colón.
The match will be played at the Malvinas Argentinas stadium in Los Polvorines, which recently underwent renovation work and has an estimated capacity of between 8,000 and 9,000 spectators. In addition, the club has prepared ticket promotions to encourage a strong turnout from fans.
That is how San Miguel heads into an important match for its current situation, needing to make the most of home advantage and confirm the recovery that began against Colegiales. In the words of Santiago Echeverría, all the details on a Trueno Verde side already focused on hosting Colón.
