How Colón's 3-0 thrashing of San Miguel unfolded | OneFootball

After two away matches — a loss to San Telmo and a win over Patronato — Colón will reunite with its home crowd at Brigadier López Stadium this Saturday starting at 7 p.m., in what will be a tough clash against San Miguel on Matchday 8 of the Primera Nacional.

It is a key match for the team coached by Ezequiel Medrán, which has a real chance of ending the day, at least until Sunday, as the sole leader. With 11 points from seven matches, Colón shares first place in Zone A with Deportivo Morón and Racing de Córdoba, who play on Sunday. Meanwhile, their opponent San Miguel, enjoying a strong campaign, has 9 points and sits just two behind El Sabalero.

After beating Patronato 2-0 in Paraná, Medrán’s side wants to claim back-to-back wins for the first time this year. To do so, they will have to beat the tough team coached by “Sapito” Coleoni, which arrives at Brigadier López with 9 points.
