Ezequiel Medrán: "We need to be more clinical, it's a team effort" | OneFootball

After the 1-1 draw against Ferro, Colón's coach, Ezequiel Medrán, analyzed the team's performance and emphasized the attitude shown despite the adversities: “I commend the character and bravery, we had to replace Marcioni, we didn't score the penalty, and then they scored. Always at a disadvantage, the team showed significant character, I take away positive things, at the start of the championship the team gave a display of character and good intentions. The substitutions gave us a very good option, they did it very well.”

On the other hand, he referred to the development of the match and the work done during the 90 minutes: “We were a solid team in parts of the match. Today we created chances, we made a great effort in the first half and didn't get the reward of a goal to manage the game better. But we had clear chances, Ferro plays really well, I think we controlled them from a football perspective. If we have to find a response to the negative, it's that we didn't achieve victory. Monetti appeared at key moments of the match, I would be worried if we didn't create chances, there's credit to the opponent and we need to be more effective, it's a collective effort.”

He also said: “Regarding the break, I have an almost new squad, we will seek to work on all aspects. We lost a mark and that ended in a goal, it hurts us that the goal came from a set piece.”

Finally, Medrán highlighted the support of the fans and the need to maintain a competitive identity: “We have to have the ability to assimilate situations, today there was recognition from the people, the team gave their all and the people acknowledged it. The Colón fan is demanding and today they supported us at all times, I value that, the effort. This is a new story that we started to walk very recently, we have to demonstrate game by game the team's intentions to compete. My teams always seek to be protagonists, no matter the field, with respect. With Central Norte we lacked in the offensive zone and today we were able to solve it.”
