Ignacio Lago after Estudiantes draw: Match analysis, future set | OneFootball

Colón forward and star player Ignacio Lago made a statement that will go down well in the Sabalero world after the 1-1 draw against Estudiantes de Buenos Aires. The attacker confirmed that next Tuesday he will sign the renewal of his contract with the Sabalero.

After the match played in Caseros, the red-and-black No. 10 and goalscorer analyzed the game, regretted how the win slipped away, and also referred to his future with the club.

“We dropped the intensity and let our guard down, and they punished us. It was similar to what happened at Los Andes; unconsciously, we sat back,” Lago said.

The attacker also stressed the demands that come with wearing the Sabalero shirt in the Primera Nacional: “We understand that we are at the biggest club in the division, one that demands you go out and win wherever you play.”

Regarding the second half, the player felt the team managed to settle in better as the minutes went by. “They started with more energy, then they dropped off and that gave us the chance to play a little more,” he said.

Ignacio Lago will stay at Colón

Beyond the football analysis, the big news came when Lago confirmed that his continuity at Colón is practically assured.

“I spoke with him (José Alonso), he told me we were going to meet during the week. God willing, everything is already set and I’ll sign on Tuesday,” the forward revealed.

He also made it clear that his desire was always to remain at the red-and-black club: “It’s what I wanted. I always made it clear since the start of the year that I wanted to stay. We looked for what benefits both sides. I want to give back for what Colón gave me.”

The player will extend his deal until December 2027.
