Fernando Echenique v Godoy Cruz: how have Colón fared under him? | OneFootball

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

Joining Echenique will be Marcelo Errante as assistant referee 1, Hernán Vallejos as assistant referee 2, and Federico Guaymas 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 21 times, with one particular detail: the vast majority of those matches came in the top tier of Argentine football.

The full breakdown of results shows complete balance, though with a slight negative edge for El Rojinegro:

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

The most recent precedent

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

On that occasion, Echenique officiated the match against Los Andes in the First Round of the Copa Argentina, 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.
