Reserves: Colón win one, lose one against La Crema at Predio 4 de Junio | OneFootball

The Colón Reserve team, led by Alejandro Russo, continued their preparation for the Projection Tournament this Saturday by playing two friendly matches against the Atlético Rafaela Reserve at the 4 de Junio Complex.

The first match ended 2-1 in favor of Atlético Rafaela, with a goal by Tomás Barbona for Colón. In the second match, Colón won 2-0, with goals from Máximo Buosi and Máximo Ingravidi, who recently joined from Defensa y Justicia, showing a good adaptation to Russo's game plan and the first glimpses of collective functioning.

The Colón Reserve team continues to work intensively in the preseason, following an initial phase that included victories in previous friendlies, such as the 1-0 win against El Quillá with a goal by Tomás Gallay, and the addition of Máximo Ingravidi from Defensa y Justicia.

Alejandro Russo, who took over the technical direction after Martín Minella's interim period in 2025, aims to strengthen the team ahead of the start of the Projection Tournament, which will serve as the main competition for AFA's youth divisions. The goal is to consolidate the young players and give them quality minutes so they can adapt to the competitive level of the category.

Last season, the Reserve team reached the final of the Clausura Tournament of the Santafesina League, demonstrating the potential of its players and the growth of the Sabalero youth academy.
