After about 4 months of inactivity, Ezequiel Medrán’s Colón played a match again, this time securing a 2-0 victory over Miramar Misiones in a game held in Paysandú as part of the Serie Río de La Plata tournament. The Sabalero goals came in the second half and were scored by Pier Barrios and Lucas Cano.
Colón was superior throughout the 90 minutes, although in the first half they barely took any shots on goal; the opening period lacked any real danger in front of either goal. In the second half, the red-and-black cheers finally arrived. After a cross, Pier Barrios found the back of the net, and as the match was coming to an end, Lucas Cano received the ball alone at the edge of the box and finished to make it a definitive 2-0.
The outcome of this first test is positive; some interesting aspects could be seen in Medrán’s team, and the opponent was far from demanding. The road that begins today is a long one. The players know it, the coach knows it, the directors know it, and of course, so do the fans, who understandably dream of a better football year.
