Colón move on and now focus on key clash with Ciudad Bolívar | OneFootball

After the draw against Almirante Brown, Colón is already thinking about Ciudad Bolívar, with Ezequiel Medrán likely to have the entire squad available. The outlook

The draw against Almirante Brown is already in the past and Colón is now focused on the Matchday 17 clash in Primera Nacional’s Zone A against Ciudad Bolívar at the Brigadier López. Because the 1-1 in Isidro Casanova left a familiar feeling: that of a team that is still alive, still competing, but still not taking off.

Now on the horizon appears a team that has emerged as one of the tournament’s biggest surprises and has found one of its main strengths away from home. A demanding test for a Colón side that needs to prove it is ready to fight for important things.

The week will begin this Monday, after the rest granted by the coaching staff following the return to Santa Fe. Ezequiel Medrán will have an advantage that in recent rounds was not always guaranteed: he will have the entire squad at his disposal. The match against Almirante Brown left no injured or suspended players, although it is worth noting that while neither is injured, both Matías Godoy and Federico Rasmussen finished with some discomfort that will not prevent them from being available next Sunday against Ciudad Bolívar, so the decisions will be based exclusively on footballing matters. That is where the real challenge appears.

The coach will have to decide which of the two versions of Colón he saw in Buenos Aires. The one from the first half, disconnected, uncomfortable, and at times outplayed. Or the one from the second half, more aggressive, with a different attitude and capable of finding ways to salvage a result that seemed to be getting complicated.

Inconsistency has become the Sabalero’s main enemy. It is not an issue of names or absences. The problem lies in maintaining the same level throughout an entire match. When it manages to do so, it shows enough to compete with anyone. When it does not, it drops points again.

That is why the match against Ciudad Bolívar looks like more than just another date on the calendar. It will be an opportunity to measure character, performance, and ambition. A chance to find out whether this Colón side is ready to take the next step or whether it will remain trapped in that dangerous habit of falling short. The Brigadier López will be the stage for an important test. Colón knows that, beyond keeping its unbeaten run alive, the time has come to start delivering answers.
