First you have to suffer: Iván Delfino got Colón to win three on the trot | OneFootball

On a vibrant afternoon marked by shifting momentum at the Malvinas Argentinas Complex in Los Polvorines, Colón de Santa Fe confirmed its excellent form and claimed a high-caliber 2-1 win over San Miguel. With this result, the team coached by Iván Delfino secured its third straight victory, confirming its footballing resurgence and moving firmly into the fight for the top spots in Primera Nacional.

Clinical finishing and Sabalero class

From the outset, the Santa Fe side looked smart in controlling the tempo of the match against a gritty opponent on its home ground. The opener came after a quick team move finished by Agustín Toledo, who sent the ball into the back of the net to make it 1-0 and break the deadlock in favor of the visitors.

In the second half, just as the home side was trying to push higher up the pitch, Colón struck again: Federico Lértora appeared in the opposing box to make it 2-0, giving his team an almost decisive advantage and reflecting the solidity the side has been building in its recent performances.

Drama at the end: San Miguel pull one back and the resistance

Far from giving up, San Miguel threw everything forward in the final stretch. With the attacking changes made by the home coaching staff, the Trueno Verde committed men to the attack and found a goal back through Bruno Nasta, injecting a heavy dose of drama into stoppage time.

Pinned back by the home side’s pressure, Iván Delfino reshaped the defensive block with substitutions, bunkering down near his own goal and defending the lead tooth and nail. Despite the bookings and the balls launched into the box in added time, the Sabalero back line held firm until the final whistle, sealing a vital win and heading back to the provincial capital with the celebration complete.
