Colón moves on, now focused 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 full squad available. The outlook

The draw against Almirante Brown is already in the past, and Colón is now focused on the match on date 17 of Primera Nacional 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, that competes, but still cannot really take off.

Now on the horizon appears a team that emerged as one of the tournament’s biggest surprises and that has found one of its main strengths away from home. A demanding test for Colón, which needs to show 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 has not always been guaranteed in recent rounds: he will have the entire squad available. The clash against Almirante Brown left no injured or suspended players, although it is worth noting that while neither Matías Godoy nor Federico Rasmussen are injured, both 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 opponent. It is not a matter of names or absences. The problem lies in sustaining the same version throughout an entire match. When it manages to do that, it shows it has the tools to compete with anyone. When it does not, it ends up dropping 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 is ready to make the leap or whether it will remain trapped in that dangerous habit of falling halfway short. The Brigadier López will be the stage for an important test. Colón knows that, beyond staying unbeaten, the time has come to start providing answers.
