The attacking edge keeping Colón top of zone A | OneFootball

Colón is looking down on everyone from the top, and the point earned in Caseros took on even greater value. Morón’s defeat to All Boys helped put the Zona A picture into place and left the Sabalero as the sole leader of the Primera Nacional. That’s why the away draw, which at the time seemed merely acceptable, ended up feeling like a positive result.

Now, of course, the challenge will be to hold on to that status next Sunday, when they host Mitre SDE starting at 6 p.m.

In the gradual progress shown by Ezequiel Medrán’s team, there is one not-so-minor detail that may have gone unnoticed: Colón managed to score in almost every match they have played this season. A clear sign of attacking consistency and also of competitiveness.

Colón almost always scores

After 13 matches — with the fourth-round game still pending — the Sabalero has only failed to score in three matches: the 0-0 draw against Central Norte, the 2-0 defeat to Morón, and the 0-0 draw against Godoy Cruz.

The stat shows that, even in tight or difficult matches, the team almost always found ways to hurt the opposition. If anything explains their current status as leaders, it is precisely that consistency: Colón does not need to win by big margins to stay on top, but they do maintain a competitive identity that allows them to keep picking up points and remain firmly in the fight.

With Medrán, little by little, the haul keeps growing and, as the tournament moves forward, the Sabalero is starting to show that it not only knows how to hold firm: it also has reasons to dream.
