Colón were poor, drew with Almirante Brown and still struggle away | OneFootball

Far from Santa Fe, Ezequiel Medrán’s team suffered more than expected and salvaged a 1-1 draw against Almirante Brown in Isidro Casanova. Andrés Montenegro’s side was superior for much of the afternoon and took the lead before the two-minute mark with a stunning goal from Nazareno Bazán Vera, while the Sabalero never really got into the match.

The only clear chance of the first half was a header from Lago. At the other end, La Fragata created the best opportunities to extend the lead, but ran into a solid Matías Budiño and a lack of finishing in the final third.

In the second half, Conrado Ibarra’s introduction gave them a bit more depth. Without doing much to deserve it, Colón found the equalizer in the 29th minute thanks to Mauro Peinipil, who came forward to make it 1-1 for good.

The point ends up being valuable given how the match unfolded. But Colón still can’t find consistency away from home; their only away win came against Patronato several matchdays ago. Next round, they will host Ciudad Bolívar in Santa Fe, the surprise team of this Primera Nacional.
