Colón won, remains at the top, and is going through a great spell, but amid the joy there was also room for concern. Matías Budiño broke his silence after the scare caused by the blow to his kidney area suffered against San Miguel and brought peace of mind after being ruled out of the match against Racing de Córdoba.
The blow suffered in the previous match caused concern among both the squad and the fans. Budiño himself admitted it was not a usual situation: “It was a scare, both for me and for the people and my family. You get used to knocks, especially in this position, but this one was a bit more complicated.”
However, the goalkeeper reassured everyone about his health: “Luckily, it’s over now,” he stressed.
Looking ahead to the next few days, he explained that he will remain under medical supervision: “Now I’m going to talk to the doctor to see what the instructions are. They’ll probably do another CT scan this week to see how the hematoma on the kidney is doing.”
In his absence, Colón’s goal was left in the hands of Tomás Paredes, who turned in a solid performance. Budiño did not hesitate to highlight his display: “Tommy is very well prepared, without a doubt he was going to do very well. I’m happy for him too and for the three points.”
Beyond the personal side, the goalkeeper also referred to the team’s current moment and the strong bond with the fans, which was once again felt at the Brigadier López: “You can really feel the support from the people. It’s very important at this moment, being up there.”
In that sense, he recalled an idea he had raised since his arrival: “We have to spread it from the inside out and from the outside in. I think that’s showing today.”
While Colón enjoys its positive run, Budiño is moving forward with his recovery cautiously, but with optimism. The progress is favorable and, if everything stays on course, he could soon be available again.
For now, the message is clear: the scare is behind him, the team is responding, and the red-and-black goal remains in good hands.
