Marked for Raúl Chamorro

Match

Racing run riot against San Martín

5‑1, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Squad

Ramiro Torres breaks a bone — 94 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 94 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Player ratings

Both of them Facundo Taborda's — 8.11

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.11, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Squad

A one-man rearguard from Brian Olivera

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Market

Raúl Chamorro asks to leave Racing

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Match

Nobody wants to play Racing right now

3 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.

Squad

Abel Bustos 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 Racing this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

6 goals as Racing and San Martín go for it

Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 6 goals between Racing and San Martín, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

Squad

Words at Racing training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Pablo Chavarría 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.

Squad

A one-man rearguard from Brian Olivera

There were 9 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Player ratings

Abel Bustos was immovable

34 times he got in the way of something. Centre-halves get written about when they make mistakes and ignored when they do not, so an afternoon like this needs saying out loud: he is the reason the scoreline reads as it does.

Match

No mercy from Racing

Colegiales will want this one forgotten quickly: 3‑0, every duel lost, and a long ride home. Racing were ruthless in the way good sides are ruthless.

Player ratings

Both of them Tomás Kummer's — 9.45

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 9.45, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Squad

Ramiro Torres breaks a bone — 122 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 122 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Player ratings

A defender's afternoon for Gabriel Aranda

Defensive actions: 29. He was first to everything and second to nothing, and the goalkeeper had an easy day because of it.

Market

Raúl Chamorro puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Racing, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Abel Bustos 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 Racing this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

Axel Oyola was on a different afternoon to everybody else

10.00. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.
