The attacking edge keeping Colón top of Zone A | OneFootball

Colón is looking down on everyone from the top, and the point earned in Caseros took on even greater value. Morón’s defeat to All Boys helped settle the picture in Zone A and left El Sabalero as the sole leader of the Primera Nacional. That’s why the away draw, which at the time seemed merely acceptable, ended up feeling like a positive result.

Now, of course, the challenge will be to hold on to that status next Sunday, when they host Mitre SDE starting at 6 p.m.

In the gradual improvement Ezequiel Medrán’s team has been showing, there is one no small detail that may have gone unnoticed: Colón managed to score in almost every match they have played this season. A clear sign of attacking consistency and competitiveness as well.

Colón almost always scores

After 13 appearances — with the fourth-round match still pending — El Sabalero has only failed to score in three matches: the 0-0 draw against Central Norte, the 2-0 loss to Morón, and the 0-0 draw against Godoy Cruz.

The stat shows that, even in tight or difficult matches, the team has almost always found ways to hurt the opposition. If anything explains their current position as leaders, it is precisely that consistency: Colón does not need to win by big margins to stay at the top, but they do maintain a competitive identity that allows them to keep picking up points and stay firmly in the fight.

With Medrán, little by little, the tally keeps growing and, as the tournament moves forward, El Sabalero is beginning to show that they not only know how to hold firm: they also have reasons to dream.
