Colón under Fernando Echenique: how have the Sabalero fared? | OneFootball

Fernando Echenique will be in charge of officiating the crucial clash between Godoy Cruz and Colón on Matchday 29 of the PrimeraNacional. The match will be played this Sunday, September 13, at 6:00 p.m. at the Estadio FelicianoGambarte, with El Sabalero looking for a positive result and the entire officiating crew now fully confirmed.

Joining Echenique will be Marcelo Errante as assistant referee 1, Hernán Vallejos as assistant referee 2, and FedericoGuaymas in the role of fourth official.

An extensive record with an ever-so-slightly unfavorable balance

The appointed referee has a long history officiating the Santa Fe side. In total, Echenique has officially refereed Colón on 21 occasions, with one notable detail: the vast majority of those matches came in the top tier of Argentine football.

The full breakdown of results shows near-perfect balance, though with a slight negative edge for the Rojinegro:

Of those 21 matches, 20 were in the Primera División and the top-flight domestic cups, while only one came in the second division.

The most recent precedent

To find the last time this referee took charge of a Sabalero match, you have to go back to the current season, specifically May 8, 2024.

On that occasion, Echenique officiated the match against Los Andes in the FirstRound of the CopaArgentina, a game that ended in a 2-1 win for Colón, snapping a previous run of matches without being able to take all three points under his officiating.
