Boardroom

Tigre are in Europe

Qualification is done, and next season the floodlights come on for something bigger. A stage for the players, oxygen for the accounts and a passport for everybody else.

Squad

The season belongs to Elías Cabrera

An individual honour is a strange thing in a team game, and the best of them are never argued with. He has had the sort of year that ends with his name being read out, and Tigre have had the benefit of it.

Market

Angelo Marchese moves on

San Lorenzo pay $390.0K, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Market

Alejandro Medina attracts admirers

The name of Alejandro Medina has come up in conversations Tigre were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Boardroom

Tigre agree a free transfer for Ramiro Centurión

Nothing happens for months and then he simply arrives, at no cost, having signed a pre-contract while still turning out for somebody else. It is the least dramatic way to sign a footballer and frequently the shrewdest.

Squad

Words at Tigre training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Joaquín Laso 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.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Market

The FC Augsburg deal is off

Everything was agreed until it was not, and Ignacio Russo reports back to Tigre with a summer to forget. Neither club is saying who walked away from the table.

Player ratings

Santiago González goes up and wins it — 7.47

A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.47 for the rest of it.

Match

Tigre get the job done against Gimnasia La Plata

A 2‑1 win over Gimnasia La Plata, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

The terraces

Tigre supporters have found a favourite in Elías Cabrera

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Elías Cabrera has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Simón Rivero

Successful dribbles: 16. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Daniel Acosta 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.

Market

Still no ink between Tigre and Jalil Elías

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Tigre, another week without a signature from Jalil Elías.

Squad

Ramón Arias 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

Tigre pick somebody else ahead of Joaquín Laso

There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.
