Match5 Sep 2026

Juninho breaks ABC hearts

Some goals win a match and some take one off somebody else. Juninho scored in the 88th minute, ABC had already begun thinking about the journey home, and Oeste took the lot.

Player ratings7 Sep 2026

A brace, and Juninho takes the afternoon — 8.29

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Juninho provided it, and the 8.29 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Sérgio Raphael 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 Oeste this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings7 Sep 2026

Léo Ceará runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 21. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match5 Sep 2026

Oeste see off ABC

Three points for Oeste, 3‑2 the final word against ABC in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Grígor 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.

Match5 Sep 2026

Oeste are shipping goals every week

Two or more conceded in each of the last 4 matches. It is not one mistake repeating itself, which would be the easier thing to fix; it is a different one every week.

The terraces7 Sep 2026

Oeste supporters have found a favourite in Juninho

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 22-year-old it feels ownership of. Juninho has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Juninho finally opens his account

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

Match12 Aug 2026

The cup run ends for Oeste

1‑4 against Corinthians, and the road stops here. Cup exits are quick deaths — no second leg, no next week, just the league from now until May.

The terraces17 Aug 2026

Oeste are taken apart by Corinthians — and the town wants answers

It finished 1-4. A cup exit is a disappointment; this was a public dismantling, and the difference between the two is the number of people who will still be talking about it in August.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Oeste

Sérgio Raphael 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.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Oeste lose Bryam

19 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Words at Oeste training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Grígor 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.

Boardroom17 Aug 2026

Nobody left the Oeste dressing room in a hurry

The door stayed shut a long time after the final whistle. What was said in there is between them; whether it worked is between them and Saturday.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Juninho 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.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

A day to forget for Ailton

Marked 5.47, and generously at that. Nothing came off, and by the end the crowd had stopped expecting it to.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Off the bench and decisive: Lucas Alvim

The substitution nobody applauded turned out to be the whole story. Oeste were going nowhere until he came on.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

Garis Mina goes up and wins it — 7.34

A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.34 for the rest of it.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Rubens signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Rubens and Oeste agree another 2 years.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Oeste

Andrey 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.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Sérgio Raphael 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.

Squad3 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Rubens

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

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

Gabriel da Motta runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 15. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market3 Aug 2026

No place for Vitor Lima in the plan

“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Vitor Lima has his answer from Oeste; what he does with it is the next window’s story.

Match1 Aug 2026

Honours even between Oeste and America Mineiro

1‑1, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

Market3 Aug 2026

Oeste and Bryam 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.

In brief

  • Player ratings Off the bench and decisive: Léo Ceará
  • Market Favorito placed on the list
  • Player ratings Buga spends the afternoon fouling
