Iván Delfino will make his official return today, Tuesday afternoon, starting at 4:00 p.m., as head coach of Colón at the Predio 4 de Junio facilities. His appointment marks the beginning of an extremely hectic week in Barrio Centenario, triggered by the recent departure of Ezequiel Medrán and the board’s swift negotiations to bring back the coach from Sunchales.

Delfino will take charge of the professional squad immediately for his first formal training session, focusing on the footballing and emotional recovery of a team that needs to get back to winning ways in the Primera Nacional. The club’s leadership pushed for his quick return because of the very limited time available before the next official matches.

The need to take all three points at the Brigadier López

The new coach will begin his tenure with the advantage—and, at the same time, the enormous pressure—of facing two consecutive matches in front of the home crowd in Santa Fe, where El Sabalero will be under absolute obligation to claim all three points in order to remain among the frontrunners:

  1. First challenge: This Sunday against San Telmo, starting at 3:30 p.m.
  2. Second challenge: Sunday, August 16, against Patronato, also scheduled for 3:30 p.m.

This double test at home will be crucial for Colón’s immediate future in the competition, serving as the ideal stage for Delfino to try to rearrange the pieces and reignite promotion hopes in Barrio Centenario.
