At Unión, no one allowed themselves to lower their guard after the victory against Aldosivi on April 15th, and this Monday they returned to training at the facility, thinking about the match on Thursday at 5:15 PM against Sarmiento in Junín for the seventh round of the Apertura Tournament. It won't be just another excursion.
The Tate knows they are at the beginning of a stretch that could set a trend. Three matches in a handful of days, travel, fatigue, and fine decisions. That's why the planning started early: controlled intensity, absolute focus, and the first hints of what will be an uncomfortable duel in Junín.
Amid this dynamic, Leonardo Madelón gave a signal that lights up the outlook. Valentín Fascendini returned to training alongside the team after overcoming the tear, although he still lacks medical clearance. Even so, everything suggests he will be available.
The question now is whether he will regain his place or if Juan Pablo Ludueña will continue, who responded solidly in his absence. Another piece in motion is Agustín Colazo, under physical evaluation and key in forming the starting eleven.
The schedule doesn't give a break. After facing the Verde, Unión will have to get back on the bus to visit Instituto de Córdoba on Sunday. Rotate or maintain the core: that is the dilemma. Managing workloads without losing identity, competing without sacrificing ambition. In Santa Fe, the message is clear: the victory is already in the past. What lies ahead demands more, and Unión wants to prove they are ready.
