The small margins put Salto out
Out, 1‑2 to Boston River, and the long argument about which of the small moments decided it. The league is all there is now, and everybody knows it.

Tomás Monua gets the move he always wanted
Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Tomás Monua has just signed for Salto, and for once the answer mattered.

Adrián Cárdenas signs on for more
“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Adrián Cárdenas and Salto agree another 4 years.

Tempers go at Salto
Matías Núñez was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Moisés Morales gets it from the manager
“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Moisés Morales already looking beyond Salto
He signed expecting a bigger stage than the one he found. It has not taken long, and it has not taken the dressing room long to notice either.

Emir Basabe needs a bigger stage
He is doing things every Saturday that nobody around him can answer. It is flattering for a season and a problem after that, and Salto know which stage they are at.

Still no ink between Salto and Matías Núñez
“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Salto, another week without a signature from Matías Núñez.

Brian Ramirez answers for it
“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 1‑2, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.
In brief
- Market Salto sign Darío Ferreira, one for the future
- Market Salto buy the years ahead of Benjamín García
- The dugout Somebody else is better right now than Emir Basabe
