Ignacio Lago has surgery, will miss opener against Deportivo Madryn

Colón striker Ignacio Lago has given the coaching staff a major headache at the start of the competition. The player had to undergo surgery last Monday due to a bone injury in one of his fingers, a physical issue he had been struggling with greatly for about a month.

As a result of this operation and the expected recovery time, the forward has officially been ruled out of the squad for the first match of the tournament’s opening round, in which El Sabalero will face Deportivo Madryn on Sunday, July 5 at 3:00 p.m.
