Medrán keeps faith with same side to build momentum and keep winning | OneFootball

Ezequiel Medrán would keep the same starting eleven at Colón that is coming off a win in Paraná. The team’s performance improved, and the coach will stick with it against San Miguel.

Colón is starting to show signs of stability. Ahead of this Saturday’s match at 7 p.m. against San Miguel, on Matchday 8 of Primera Nacional Zone A, Ezequiel Medrán would repeat the lineup that beat Patronato 2-0 at Presbítero Bartolomé Grella.

It will be the first time in the tournament that the coach keeps the same team from one match to the next, a decision that shows a clear aim: to cement an idea and give continuity to a performance that, while inconsistent, has left positive signs.

Colón, a team with two faces

The analysis of the last match leaves an obvious takeaway: Colón was two teams in one. During the first half, they looked restrained, created very little, and lacked attacking threat. The system, with three central midfielders, seemed to take away depth from a team that, especially at home, needs to take the initiative.

However, the second half changed the story completely. El Sabalero loosened up, combinations started to appear, and the team improved in dynamism, confidence, and aggression.

Lago sparked the team

The turning point of the match came with an individual play by Ignacio Lago, who broke the monotony with a stunning goal to open the scoring. From then on, Colón took control of the game.
