Yeferson Quintana 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 Santa Cruz this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Matheus Vinicius knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Santa Cruz, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Patrick Allan placed on the list

Santa Cruz have made Patrick Allan available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.

In brief

  • Squad Eron is not doing himself any favours
  • Squad Quirino keeps his manager's vote

Match12 Aug 2026

Santa Cruz out of the cup

Internacional ended it 0‑1. The season narrows to the league now, and everyone in the ground knew it before the final whistle.

Nobody could get near Robinho

Successful dribbles: 30. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

The terraces17 Aug 2026

The boos come down from three sides

“We pay for this every fortnight. The least we want is somebody who looks like he cares.” 6 of the 26 senior players walked off into it; the rest were not playing.

Match15 Aug 2026

Santa Cruz come up short against Paysandu

Paysandu left with the points after a 1‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad17 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Renato

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

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Eron in the eights

A performance of 8.54 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Costly mistake from Felipe Alves

An error at the back is a moment; an error in goal is a goal. Felipe Alves knows it, the crowd knew it instantly, and there was nobody behind him to make it anything else.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

The one thing Quirino could not do

Shots: 11, enough of them from close enough that a striker in form scores two. He is not a striker in form.

In brief

  • Squad Eron finally opens his account
  • Player ratings Pedro Costa never got going
  • The terraces The press cannot get enough of Eron

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad10 Aug 2026

Felipe Alves keeps Santa Cruz in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 7 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Player ratings10 Aug 2026

Eron runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 26. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Ianson shuts the door

Defensive actions: 22, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

Andrey shuts the door

Match8 Aug 2026

Quirino sends Santa Cruz past ABC

It finished 1‑0, and it was Quirino’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Santa Cruz.

Player ratings10 Aug 2026

A masterclass from Quirino

Marked 8.50 — 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.

Market10 Aug 2026

Santa Cruz and Quirino are talking past each other

“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Quirino finally opens his account

He wheeled away like a man who had been carrying it for months, because he had. Santa Cruz have their signing off the mark and one press-conference question retired.
