Medrán after Colón draw with Acassuso: «We owe our fans»

Colón drew away against Acassuso and, once the match was over, coach Ezequiel Medrán analyzed his team’s performance, regretted the mistakes that shaped the course of the game, and addressed the rumors about his future.

The coach explained that the goal conceded in the opening minutes ended up setting the tone of the match, although he highlighted the team’s reaction, as they pushed for the equalizer until the very end.

“Today was a difficult match to compete in. The goal at the start of the game affected the whole process. The reality is that these are matches decided by details, and right from the beginning we allowed the opposing team to score on us. The frustrating part is not having won; we kept pushing until the end.”

Medrán also referred to the state of the pitch and praised his players’ attitude.

“The difficulty of the pitch was there; we had to play in whatever way we could. Of course, we also make mistakes that end up hurting us. Today the team gave everything to the fullest of its abilities.”

Asked whether he feels he still has the strength to continue leading the team, the coach made it clear that he and his staff remain calm.

“We’re doing well with the coaching staff. We have to stay calm and composed as we work through things. We’ve made specific mistakes that have kept us from picking up points the way we wanted.”

He also acknowledged that the team’s current form is not what was expected and that they owe the red-and-black supporters.

“It’s clear that we’re in debt to our people. Today, the concern over not having Colón in a more competitive position is there.”

Lastly, Medrán spoke about the reports surrounding his continuity and revealed that he had a conversation with the club president.

“You try to block it out and focus on the work. What’s said around us is beyond our control, although it obviously has an impact. I had a supportive conversation with the president, understanding the difficulties we’re going through.”

The 1-1 away draw against Acassuso left Colón with the feeling that they had let a good chance to take all three points slip away. Meanwhile, the team continues searching for consistency, and Medrán’s future remains one of the issues surrounding the club’s current situation.
