Match12 Sep 2026

4 matches without a win for Nautico

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Nautico are no longer polite ones.

Match12 Sep 2026

4 matches without a goal for Nautico

The chances are being made and something is happening between the making and the finishing. 4 matches now, and the anxiety in the ground arrives a little earlier every week.

Squad14 Sep 2026

A row about effort at Nautico

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

Match12 Sep 2026

Nautico come up short against Criciuma

Criciuma left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Tempers go at Nautico

Luiz Felipe 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.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

The manager’s verdict

“That is on me. I pick the team and I picked wrong.” Managers say that when they mean it and when they need to be seen to, and after 0‑2 Diego Nogueira left the room before anybody could ask which.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

No hiding place for Benjamín Borasi

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

The dugout14 Sep 2026

The manager has not finished forgetting Vinícius's mistake

Publicly it is behind everybody. It is not behind the man who picks the team, and the only place that shows is a team sheet. He will get another chance; he will get it in a match that matters less.

Squad14 Sep 2026

No place for João Morelli in the new shape

He is not being dropped. There is simply nowhere in the formation Nautico are playing to put a man who does what he does, which is a harder thing to be told than any team sheet.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad31 Aug 2026

Nautico are still strangers to each other

17 new signings in one window. Every one may be an upgrade and the side can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild the verdicts never mention.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

A defender's afternoon for Mateus Silva

Defensive actions: 16. He was first to everything and second to nothing, and the goalkeeper had an easy day because of it.

The dugout31 Aug 2026

Felipe Saraiva 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.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

Nothing got past Alemão

15 defensive actions and a clean sheet at the end of them. A defender's afternoon can only be told by what did not happen, which is why nobody makes a highlights package out of one and every manager in the division would take it.

The dugout31 Aug 2026

Matheus Ribeiro dropped after a run of poor form

The one version of being left out a player cannot argue with, and the one he takes worst. Somebody else has been better and the team sheet says so, in public, every week until it changes.

The dugout31 Aug 2026

Half-satisfied: Diego Nogueira on the draw

“There are things I liked and things we will be doing on Tuesday until they are right.” 0‑0, and a manager who had already decided what Tuesday looked like.

Squad31 Aug 2026

A row about effort at Nautico

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

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

Vinícius runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 12. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match29 Aug 2026

Point won or two lost for Nautico?

Ninety minutes, no goals, and the argument started before the car park emptied: a point gained, or two thrown away against ABC? Both sides of it will still be going on Thursday.

From our football correspondent Steady

Squad24 Aug 2026

Muriel stands alone

7 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Squad24 Aug 2026

A row about effort at Nautico

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

The dugout24 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Auremir

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

Squad24 Aug 2026

The formation has left Matheus Machado behind

Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Nautico will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Victor Monteiro stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Victor Monteiro and Nautico agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

The dugout24 Aug 2026

Somebody else is better right now than Matheus Ribeiro

The team sheet says it in public every week until it changes. The only version of being dropped a footballer cannot argue with, and the one he takes hardest.

The dugout24 Aug 2026

Diego Nogueira: “We have to be better”

“It is not the end of the world and it is not good enough. Both of those are true.” The manager, after a 0‑0 draw, said the honest thing and then went to say it again inside.

Match22 Aug 2026

No goals between Nautico and Santa Cruz

Ninety minutes, two goalkeepers with clean gloves, and not one finish worth keeping. Santa Cruz will be the happier side with the point.

Looking ahead24 Aug 2026

Reginaldo Lopes faces his old club

ABC next, and one man in the Nautico dressing room knows their training ground better than his own. The reception will tell him what they thought of him.
