Colón lose unbeaten run at Isla Maciel: San Telmo outclass them 3-1 | OneFootball

In a tumultuous and adverse encounter, Colón suffered its first defeat of the tournament, falling 3-1 to San Telmo in the sixth round of the Primera Nacional. Ezequiel Medrán's team failed to find its footing at the Osvaldo Baletto Stadium and succumbed to the effectiveness of a "Candombero" team that dominated from start to finish.

An Uphill First Half

From the start, San Telmo took the initiative. Although Matías Budiño initially kept a clean sheet with key interventions, the Sabalero goal faced constant threats, including a shot that hit the post. The resistance broke at 41 minutes when Joel González scored in a one-on-one to make it 1-0, with which both teams went into halftime.

Unbelievable Delay and Lethal Blow

The start of the second half was marred by a wait of over 45 minutes due to the absence of the mandatory ambulance (which had to transport a fan). After the resumption, the break seemed to affect Colón more: quickly, Joel González struck again after a great individual maneuver to extend the lead to 2-0.

Insufficient Reaction

Medrán made changes from the bench seeking answers and found them at 19 minutes when Alan Bonansea scored with a header after a precise cross to reduce the deficit. However, the hope of a comeback was short-lived. Just minutes later, Franco Tisera sealed the story with the definitive 3-1 after outmaneuvering the Santafesina defense.

With this result, the Sabalero leaves behind its unbeaten streak and must quickly work to regain ground in Zone B.
