Lértora, unhappy with Delfino leaving him out against Patronato | OneFootball

The lead-up to the match between Colón and Patronato left a particular situation within the Sabalero squad. According to journalist Luciano Brondino, Federico Lértora said he wanted to play and that he was in good condition, but he was ultimately left out of Iván Delfino’s plans for the match.

The midfielder reportedly did not take the coach’s decision well. Lértora was convinced he could be part of the team and expected to have the chance to get some minutes, so Delfino’s decision caused some discomfort for the player.

The situation arose in the context of an important match for Colón, who needed points against Patronato to stay in the fight for the top spots in Primera Nacional. In that context, Lértora’s absence drew attention, especially considering that, according to the information provided on La Doce on Radio Gol

Delfino, meanwhile, decided to do without the midfielder and move forward with another option in the center of the pitch. The coach took on the challenge of finding the form that will allow the team to regain consistency and become contenders again in the second half of the season.

Lértora’s displeasure adds another element to the squad’s current situation, and it will be worth watching closely how the relationship between the player and the coaching staff develops in the coming matches. Delfino’s decision marks one of the first internal differences since his arrival at the club, although for now it is an isolated situation linked to team selection.

Lértora will have to wait for another opportunity to show the coach that he can be an important piece for Colón. Meanwhile, Delfino continues working to find a team setup that will allow the Sabalero to put together a run of good results again and move closer to the goal of fighting for the top places.
