Squad

Esteban Calderón breaks a bone — 84 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 84 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Bastián Yáñez

Successful dribbles: 28. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Tempers go at O'Higgins

Martín Sarrafiore 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.

Match

Francisco González the difference as O'Higgins beat Union Espanola

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Francisco González. 1‑0 against Union Espanola, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Squad

Alan Robledo falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

No hiding place for Arnaldo Castillo

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Arnaldo Castillo, and the manager let it.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Bryan Rabello

Successful dribbles: 35. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

A fracture rules Esteban Calderón out for 92 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason O'Higgins will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Match

O'Higgins bow out of the cup

Union La Calera go through and O'Higgins go home, 0‑0 the scoreline that did it. The dressing room will call the league the priority now, because that is what dressing rooms say.

Squad

Omar Carabalí decides it from twelve yards

1 kept out in the shoot-out, and a stadium that will still be describing them in twenty years. A goalkeeper only needs one of these to be remembered forever.

Squad

Martín Sarrafiore in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at O'Higgins this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Rodrigo Godoy

At 20 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Match

O'Higgins see off Audax Italiano

Three points for O'Higgins, 2‑0 the final word against Audax Italiano in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad

Words at O'Higgins training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Alan Robledo is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Player ratings

Esteban Moreira misses from twelve yards

It was his to settle and he did not settle it. A long walk back to the halfway line, and a considerably longer week.
