The dugout

Leandro Sergipe keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Brusque may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad

Words exchanged at Brusque

David da Hora 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.

Squad

Words at Brusque training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Gonzalo Escobar 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.

Match

The run at home goes on for Brusque

8 matches unbeaten here. Every visiting manager is asked about it in the week before, which is precisely why it keeps going.

Match

Late, late show earns Brusque a point

Minute 94, against Guarani, and a goal that felt like a win to everybody who had stayed. It was a draw. Nobody leaving the ground will describe it as one.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Kelvi

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

The dugout

Judson left out for the big one

A player who expected to start watched it instead. The manager will call it a decision for the team; Judson will call it something else in private.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Jean Carlos

Successful dribbles: 16. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Player ratings

David da Hora stands above it all

Some games turn on a moment; this one turned on a man. 7.91 on the card, and the Brusque support went home talking about one name.

In brief

Back issues

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

A fracture rules Rafael Furlan out for 46 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Brusque will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Market

Yan Silva asks to leave Brusque

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Transfer targets

Corinthians tell Brusque: Matheuzinho is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Transfer targets

Leandro Sergipe is a medical away from Brusque

The deal with Ituano is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Squad

A falling-out at Brusque

Gonzalo Escobar and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad

João Pedro Tchoca 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 dugout

Guilherme Nunes 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.

Player ratings

David da Hora beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 17. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Squad

Gonzalo Escobar needs a bigger stage

He is doing things every Saturday that nobody around him can answer. It is flattering for a season and a problem after that, and Brusque know which stage they are at.
