Marked for Aarón Martínez

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Leandro Lugarzo

120 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Liniers lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Player ratings

Age has not caught Diego Auzqui yet — 7.89

At 37 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 7.89 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Match

Diego Auzqui sends Liniers past Acassuso

It finished 2‑1, and it was Diego Auzqui’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Liniers.

Boardroom

140% of the income goes out in wages at Liniers

Every club in football pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time somebody has tried it.

Squad

A row about effort at Liniers

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Ezequiel Gallegos was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Mateo Gridel

Marked 8.09 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Squad

Words exchanged at Liniers

Guillermo Mac'Kay and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

The dugout

Aarón Martínez 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.

The dugout

The view from the dugout

“We controlled it. There were spells I did not like and we will look at them, but the group showed me something.” Facundo Costa, on a 2‑1 win that he was already picking apart on the walk to the press room.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Squad

The knee: Leandro Lugarzo out for 152 days

152 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Liniers lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

The dugout

Aarón Martínez keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Liniers may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad

A one-man rearguard from Christopher De Feliche

There were 7 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.

Squad

Diego Auzqui 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 Liniers this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

A bad afternoon for Liniers against Sportivo Italiano

2‑3 to Sportivo Italiano, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Boardroom

Wages eat 163% of everything Liniers earn

There is a figure at which a wage bill stops being ambitious and becomes the reason nothing else is possible, and this club has reached it. Nothing is left over for a transfer, a stand or a rainy afternoon.

The dugout

No hiding place for Franco Herrera

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

Squad

Ezequiel Gallegos 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.

The dugout

Facundo Costa faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Facundo Costa after 2‑3, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.
