Colón is getting ready to visit Estudiantes (BA) at 3:30 p.m. for Round 14 of Primera Nacional Zone A, with one eye on referee Felipe Viola.

Colón already knows Felipe Viola, who will officiate this Saturday’s match, starting at 3:30 p.m., against Estudiantes de Caseros for Round 14 of Primera Nacional Zone A. Looking back at the head-to-head record, there is only one match, and the memory is not a pleasant one.

How did Colón fare with Felipe Viola as referee?

It was on July 1, 2025, at the Brigadier López, in a 1-0 defeat against Mitre in Round 20. That night ended amid tension, protests, and incidents that forced the match to be suspended before it could be completed. The atmosphere in the stands erupted due to the team’s poor form under Andrés Yllana, and the game had to be resumed the following day to play the remaining minutes.

Now, almost a year later, Viola will cross paths with Colón again in a completely different context. Ezequiel Medrán’s team will arrive at the Ciudad de Caseros stadium needing points to stay in the thick of the fight in Primera Nacional Zone A and also begin to fix an issue that has lingered since relegation: their poor performances away from Santa Fe.

The officiating crew will be made up of Lucas Ripoli and Carla López as assistant referees, while Ramiro Maglio will be the fourth official.
