Colón defeated Gimnasia y Esgrima de La Plata 1-0 and climbed to eighth place, within the qualifying zone for international cups, in a match played on Monday night, completing the sixteenth round of the Argentine Superliga, led by Boca Juniors.
Javier Correa (52) scored the only goal of the night in Santa Fe for Colón, who now has 26 points and becomes one of the qualifiers for next year's Copa Sudamericana, although they are far behind Boca (40), who on Sunday defeated Banfield (1-0) and opened up a nine-point lead over their closest followers.
Alexander Domínguez had a standout performance in the match. He even saved his team by stopping a close-range shot and a consecutive rebound. (D)
