Ignacio Echevarría puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Gimnasia y Esgrima, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad19 Apr 2027

Tempers go at Gimnasia y Esgrima

Imanol González 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.

Blas Armoa runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 22. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad19 Apr 2027

Words at Gimnasia y Esgrima training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ulises Sánchez 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.

Squad19 Apr 2027

No hiding place for Juan Franco

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

Match17 Apr 2027

Honours even between Gimnasia y Esgrima and Deportivo Riestra

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

Market29 Mar 2027

Franco Vives hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Gimnasia y Esgrima can pretend not to have heard.

Nobody could get near Blas Armoa

Successful dribbles: 24. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad29 Mar 2027

Tempers go at Gimnasia y Esgrima

Ezequiel Muñoz 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.

Squad29 Mar 2027

Ulises Sánchez 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.

Squad29 Mar 2027

No hiding place for Ulises Sánchez

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

Match27 Mar 2027

Gimnasia y Esgrima come up short against Lanús

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

Squad29 Mar 2027

Lautaro Petruchi lets one through his hands

A defender's mistake gets tidied up by somebody else; a goalkeeper's ends up in the net. He knew before the ball crossed the line, and so did everybody in the ground.

Valentino Simoni leaves them behind him

Shots: 7. Goals: none. The chances were there and they were good ones, and they went into the stand, the goalkeeper's arms and the side netting in roughly that order.

The terraces29 Mar 2027

The spotlight tightens on Facundo Lencioni

Every touch is being weighed now, in print and everywhere else. Some players grow into that and some are quietly ruined by it, and nobody knows which in advance.
