Colón de Santa Fe beat Miramar Misiones 2-0 in the at the Artigas Park in Paysandú in an international friendly for the Río de la Plata 2026 Series.
The match began with the Sabaleros trying to take over possession, but the Cebritas were the first to go deep at 5′ with a shot from outside the area by Nahuel Gelós that ended up in the goalkeeper’s hands.
Colón continued to dominate the process, he controlled the ball and the ground, trying to constantly widen the field, but he showed difficulties when it came to finding depth. The first fairly clear chance came at 27′ with a forced shot by Ignacio Antonio that went over the crossbar. At 40′, a great play by Lago on the left culminated in a cross into the area that Castro connected with a header, but the ball went straight into the goalkeeper’s hands.
The match in Sanduceras lands was unlocked in the second half, after a corner kick in which Pierre Barrios won with a header, changed the trajectory and put it against the post to make it 1-0.
The goal did justice to the game, but at the end a gift from the Miramar fund came that ended up ending the match. An unusual mistake by the goalkeeper when trying to play from the back ended up giving the ball to Cano, who scored with an empty goal for the 2-0 that sealed the game.
Colón was more, he found the goals in the complement and began his stay in Uruguay with a victory that invites him to get excited.
