Colón receives Argentinos Juniors this Monday at Brigadier General Estanislao López’s stadium in Santa Fe, for the twenty-first round of the Professional League, and in a cross between two teams with very different aspirations. The match, which starts at 5pm with Nicolás Ramírez arbitration, is broadcast by TNT Sports.
The ‘Sabalero’ comes from the fall in Cordoba against Talleres, in a match that confirmed his bad moment. Colón does not raise his head, is 25th in the Professional League, and has been more than relegated in the fight to get into the cups. The political climate in the club is tense and some contacts are starting to lose support. Today, Colón will look to reduce this losing streak once and for all against Argentinos Juniors.
El ‘Bicho’, on the other hand, lives a more positive reality, even if like Colón he has lost his last commitment. Argentinos lost at home to Atlético Tucumán and said goodbye to the title fight, even if Libertadores still dream. In the annual ranking, the cast of La Paternal is seventh, 5 points from the gymnastics line. To keep dreaming, he has to add three to Colón today.
