Marked for Juninho Monteiro

The Volta Redonda Post

1 Nov 2027
From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad1 Nov 2027

Defences have started doubling up on Gabriel Taliari

25 goals and a season average of 7.52 will do that. The space he used to find has gone; he keeps scoring anyway, which is the mark of the real thing.

Match30 Oct 2027

Matheus Souza breaks ABC hearts

Some goals win a match and some take one off somebody else. Matheus Souza scored in the 85th minute, ABC had already begun thinking about the journey home, and Volta Redonda took the lot.

Match30 Oct 2027

12 unbeaten for Volta Redonda

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 12 matches without defeat is a foundation Volta Redonda did not have in the autumn.

Squad1 Nov 2027

Words exchanged at Volta Redonda

Gabriel Taliari 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.

Player ratings1 Nov 2027

A hand in 2 of them from Gabriel Taliari — 7.90

Marked 7.90. There is a kind of forward whose value only shows up when you count what he was involved in rather than what he finished, and this is the day that argument makes itself.

Squad1 Nov 2027

Oswaldo Blanco is not the player he was

It happens to all of them and it is still the hardest paragraph a local paper has to write. 37 years old, 3 points down on where he was, and a body that has started charging interest on a career.

Match30 Oct 2027

Volta Redonda see off ABC

Three points for Volta Redonda, 2‑1 the final word against ABC in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Match26 Oct 2027

Volta Redonda find a way past Guarani

Guarani made Volta Redonda work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Market1 Nov 2027

Lucas Souza returns a better player

21 games and 0 goals away from here, and a man the manager did not have last summer. The loan did what loans are supposed to do and almost never do.

The Volta Redonda Post

7 Sep 2026
From our football correspondent Steady

Market7 Sep 2026

Juninho Monteiro 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 The request is on a desk at Volta Redonda, and it is not being withdrawn.

Boardroom7 Sep 2026

Luis Campero will join Volta Redonda for nothing

The paperwork is done long before the player is. Luis Campero has agreed terms to come here when his current deal runs out, which means Volta Redonda have spent a summer's transfer budget on a phone call.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Fabrício 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.

The dugout7 Sep 2026

Adsson 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.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Ygor Catatau is no longer first choice

The manager has re-ordered his thinking and Ygor Catatau has come out of it lower. He will be told it is temporary, and the players who have heard that before will avoid his eye.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Leandro 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 Volta Redonda this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad7 Sep 2026

13 new faces, and Volta Redonda are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

The dugout7 Sep 2026

Deivity has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Volta Redonda 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.

Looking ahead7 Sep 2026

A reunion for Matheus Souza

He used to wear the other shirt. On Saturday he plays against Operário Ferroviário in this one, and whatever he says this week about it being just another game will be untrue.

In brief
