Patronato beat Colegiales and head into the Colón clash upbeat | OneFootball

At the Presbítero Bartolomé Grella, Patronato achieved their first victory of the season by defeating Colegiales 2-0 in the Primera Nacional. Rubén Darío Forestello’s team secured three vital points that allow them to leave the bottom spot of Zone B and gain confidence for what’s ahead.

The score was opened at the 36th minute of the first half by Renzo Reynaga, who converted a penalty awarded by referee Yamil Possi after a handball by Franco Malagueño in the box. Until that moment, the match had been even and uneventful, but the accuracy from the penalty spot allowed the “Rojinegro” to go into halftime with the lead.

Decision and Control

In the second half, the home team struck quickly to settle the match. Just 7 minutes in, Federico Bravo made it 2-0 for good. With the lead in their favor, the team from Entre Ríos made substitutions and controlled the pace of the game against a Colegiales side that, despite their efforts, never managed to seriously threaten Alan Sosa’s goal.

This win serves as a much-needed relief for a Patronato side that had only accumulated two points in the tournament. Moreover, the result injects a dose of optimism just before a high-stakes clash: Patronato’s next opponent will be Colón, in what promises to be one of the most attractive matchups in the division.
