Colegiales 0-0 Ferrocarril Midland | ARG Primera Nacional | 21 July 2026
At the Estadio Libertarios Unidos, Colegiales and Ferrocarril Midland played out a dour goalless draw that reflected two teams struggling for form in the Primera Nacional. Few clear‑cut chances were created, and both sides will feel they left something on the pitch.
Competitive but Uninspired First Half
Colegiales, playing in their trademark blue, started with energy, pressing high and forcing Midland into long clearances. The home side’s midfield trio of Martín Bergara, Leandro Palacios and Nicolás Flores controlled the centre, but their final ball repeatedly let them down. The best chance came from a corner in the 28th minute when centre‑back Alejandro Varela rose highest, only to see his header cannon off the crossbar.
Ferrocarril Midland grew into the contest as the half progressed. Their attacking star Ibrahim Gómez showed clever footwork to create space on the edge of the box, but his curling shot was comfortably gathered by Colegiales goalkeeper Lucas Insua.
Second Half – No Breakthrough
The second half followed the same pattern. Colegiales enjoyed more possession but lacked a cutting edge, while Midland seemed content to secure a point on the road. Both coaches made substitutions in search of a winner, but the changes failed to ignite the game. Midland’s Jonathan Luján came closest to breaking the deadlock in the 81st minute, firing a low shot across goal that just missed the far post.
In the end, neither team could find the net. The match will go down as a forgettable night for the handful of fans who braved the winter chill, but both teams at least avoided defeat.
Looking Ahead
Colegiales will rue missed opportunities to climb the table, while Ferrocarril Midland extend their unbeaten run but remain in the relegation zone. The focus for both sets of players will now shift to the next round, where sharper finishing will be a top priority.
