Colón’s tactical doubts before Ferro: is Antonio back? | OneFootball

The squad completed its final training session in the city this Wednesday and is already in Buenos Aires ahead of a crucial clash. This Friday at 7:30 p.m., El Sabalero will visit the competition’s leader, Ferro Carril Oeste. To fine-tune the final details of the strategy, the Santa Fe side will train in the afternoon at the training ground owned by Independiente in Villa Domínico.

During the formal football practice held before the trip, the coaching staff surprised everyone by shaking things up and testing tactical alternatives. The starting lineup was made up of: Peinipil, Rasmussen, Olmedo and Allende; Marcioni, Antonio, Lertora and Lago; Sarmiento and Bonansea. Compared with the eleven that beat Central Norte, the only change in the starting team was the return of Antonio — who had served his suspension for yellow cards — in place of Matías Muñoz.

However, the tactical session did not stop there. As the minutes went by, the head coach tested a major change of direction by bringing on García for Lago and Muñoz for Sarmiento. These changes completely reshaped the structure on the pitch, shifting the system to a clear five-man midfield, an alternative designed especially to counter the league leader’s strength in Caballito.
