Before kickoff and the 3-0 thrashing of San Miguel, the Brigadier López Stadium was the setting for a moving tribute by Colón to veterans, as part of Veterans Day and the Day of the Fallen in the Malvinas War. The Santa Fe institution, which had already begun the tributes virtually, brought the respect shown on its social media onto the pitch, creating a deep connection with the fans in attendance.

On a day when the sporting side of things ended up being ideal, the club took a break from the adrenaline of football to prioritize collective memory. The tribute, marked by its sobriety, reaffirmed Colón’s social role as an institution that goes beyond the boundaries of the field and remains closely tied to the history and feelings of its people.

In an atmosphere of absolute respect, the fans joined in this tribute that brought football together with a national cause. In this way, the night in Barrio Centenario left a clear message: beyond the three points earned convincingly, the club understood that the value of remembering and honoring the heroes of the Malvinas is a victory that endures far beyond the final result.
