Colón and a recurring trend: much better after the break | OneFootball

Colón is going through a period of footballing growth that has been reflected in its latest performances. Beyond the results, the team showed a trait that was repeated in its three most recent matches: its best version appeared after halftime.

The first example came against Acassuso, still during Ezequiel Medrán’s spell in charge. El Sabalero had a poor first half and went behind, but reacted after the break, found the equalizer, and ended up being the side that pushed hardest for the win.

With Iván Delfino’s debut, the story repeated itself. Colón had a quiet first half with few chances, but raised its level considerably in the second half. Although the goal came from a controversial penalty, the Santa Fe side ended up justifying the win and even had chances to extend the lead.

Against Patronato, meanwhile, the team struggled again during the first 45 minutes and was outplayed by its opponent. However, Agustín Toledo’s goal just before the end of the first half proved to be a turning point. In the second half, another side of El Sabalero emerged and, in just 12 minutes, it scored two goals to set up a commanding rout.

The trend is clear: Colón is managing to turn its matches around through the changes it shows after the break. For Delfino, the challenge will be to make sure that strong performance also carries over to the opening minutes and that the team can sustain for longer the intensity and play it shows in second halves.
