Overview
- Ferro beat Colón 2-0 on Friday in Caballito to open the segunda rueda, keeping its spot atop Zone A and extending its unbeaten run to ten matches.
- The opener came inside the first minute when Hoyos set up Marra for a strike, and Parisi sealed the game from the penalty spot after an Allende handball in the second half.
- Emanuel Dening missed the match because he served a one-game suspension for reaching five yellow cards, and Colón had raised questions before kickoff about goalkeeper Monetti's yellow-card count with AFA verification under consideration.
- Leandro Garate remained unavailable to play because his international registration was still pending in the Transfer Matching System, while Patricio Risso Patrón is cleared and training with Colón.
- The match was streamed on AFA's LPF Play and leaves Ferro with 40 points and Colón second on 35 points, a result that tightens the fight for direct promotion and sets up Colón's next game on July 26.
