What Colón and their direct rivals still face in the battle to stay up

Colón's defeat against Estudiantes de Río Cuarto by 1-0 at the Brigadier López further complicated the outlook for the team from Santa Fe. The Sabalero dropped to 16th place in Zone B, after being surpassed in the standings by Almirante Brown, who defeated San Telmo and reached 29 points.

With only four matches remaining, the fight for permanence will be dramatic, as the last two will be relegated.

Colón (A) Talleres de Remedios de Escalada (17 pts) Colón (H) Mitre (A) Chaco For Ever (H) Almirante Brown (A) A Finale Full of Decisive Matches The schedule offers a special twist: Colón still has to face the two direct rivals in the fight for permanence. First, they will visit Talleres de Escalada, and in the final match, they will host CADU at the Brigadier, in a game that could be decisive. Meanwhile, Talleres also has direct clashes, as they will host Colón and finish against Almirante Brown. The team from Isidro Casanova, which currently breathes a bit easier, will also have a tough schedule with matches against Chacarita and Estudiantes de Río Cuarto. CADU, which is in a more difficult position, will try to close the gap at home against Chicago and Temperley before visiting Colón in the final round. Open Ending The margin is minimal, and the pressure is mounting. Colón, who started the season with hopes of competing at the top, now finds itself tangled in the fight for survival and faces a final stretch where each point could mean the difference between relief and another historic blow. Colón could secure its permanence in the category by simply drawing against Talleres de Remedios de Escalada (this rival will not be able to surpass them in the final matches) and if CADU loses to Estudiantes de Buenos Aires. If they win, they must hope that the team from Zárate does not win to confirm their permanence in the category.
