Overview
- Colón lost 1-0 at Chaco For Ever in Resistencia when Mauro Peinipil turned the ball into his own net late in the second half, and fans from Santa Fe attended the match at Estadio Juan Alberto García.
- Captain Federico Lértora called the result a source of 'anger and frustration' and criticized the pitch, while coach Ezequiel Medrán said Colón controlled the first half but failed to solve problems in the second and traced the goal to a poorly executed set piece.
- Medrán kept the starting lineup largely unchanged but made one enforced swap by starting Sebastián Olmedo for Pier Barrios, who is suspended after receiving his fifth yellow card.
- Three regulars—Rasmussen, Lértora and Facundo Castet—arrived at the match on four yellow cards and will be suspended if booked, creating immediate selection risks for the start of the second half.
- Colón confirmed Franco García as its first signing and plans to prioritize another striker, a central defender and a fullback in the transfer window while continuing to use youth options such as Máximo Ingravidi and Jerónimo Buosi; Chaco For Ever remains bottom of the group and will introduce Daniel Cravero as coach after the match.
