Colón de Santa Fe and Vélez Sarsfield open this Sunday the Copa Río de La Plata summer tournament that is played in Uruguay until January 27 and in which Argentine, Uruguayan, Peruvian and Ecuadorian teams participate.
At minute 42, the referee awarded Vélez a penalty for a foul by Facundo Garcés on Lucas Janson in the area. The defender avoided what was going to be the first goal for Fortín, when the striker was in front of the goal without a goalkeeper. However, from twelve steps, Janson himself converted for his team, opening the scoring.
The match will take place at 8:30 p.m. at the Maldonado Campus and will be refereed by local Leodán González. It is broadcast on ESPN 3:
