Squad16 Nov 2026

62 days out for Renan Gorne after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. CSA will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Squad16 Nov 2026

Words exchanged at CSA

Camacho 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.

Squad16 Nov 2026

A row about effort at CSA

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

The dugout16 Nov 2026

No hiding place for André Santos

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

The dugout16 Nov 2026

Lucas Taylor has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at CSA will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

Jean Carlos asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Player ratings21 Sep 2026

Lucas Taylor beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 37. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Squad21 Sep 2026

Edrean breaks a bone — 96 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 96 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Match19 Sep 2026

6 matches without a win for CSA

The run now stands at 6, and the questions being asked around CSA are no longer polite ones.

Squad21 Sep 2026

Words exchanged at CSA

Camacho 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.

Squad21 Sep 2026

Words at CSA training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Hugo Borges 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.

Match19 Sep 2026

3 matches without a goal for CSA

The chances are being made and something is happening between the making and the finishing. 3 matches now, and the anxiety in the ground arrives a little earlier every week.

Player ratings21 Sep 2026

Jeferson stands above it all

Some games turn on a moment; this one turned on a man. 7.17 on the card, and the CSA support went home talking about one name.

The dugout21 Sep 2026

When it matters, Lucas Taylor plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

The dugout21 Sep 2026

The view from the dugout

“We did not lose. Some weeks that is all you get, and I would rather have the point than not.” Rodrygo Santos chose the glass-half-full version of 0‑0; the supporters left with the other one.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Lucas Taylor runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 32. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Tony Batista keeps CSA in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Match12 Sep 2026

No end in sight to CSA's wait for a win

5 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at CSA has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad14 Sep 2026

A row about effort at CSA

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

Match12 Sep 2026

CSA come up short against Náutico

Náutico left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

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 0‑1 Rodrygo Santos left the room before anybody could ask which.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

CSA pick somebody else ahead of Edvan

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.

Looking ahead14 Sep 2026

Tony Batista faces his old club

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

The dugout14 Sep 2026

André Santos left out for tactical reasons at CSA

The shape wanted a different profile against this opponent, which is a real football answer and no comfort at all to the man it is about. He did nothing wrong and he did not play.

The Humaitá Courier

3 Aug 2026
From our football correspondent Crisis

Match1 Aug 2026

Chastening afternoon for Humaitá

A 0‑5 beating by Sampaio Corrêa was the sort of result that empties a stadium long before the final whistle.

The dugout3 Aug 2026

Tiago Ribeiro faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Tiago Ribeiro after 0‑5, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

Market3 Aug 2026

Wallace leaves for nothing

Contract settled, hands shaken, no fee changing hands. Wallace leaves Humaitá the quiet way, and the wage bill breathes a little easier.
