Darío López Torres out for 38 days

The medical room confirms 38 days on the sidelines for Darío López Torres, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Squad3 Apr 2028

Tempers go at General Caballero

Jorge Rojas 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.

A defender's afternoon for Guillermo Coronel

Defensive actions: 22. He was first to everything and second to nothing, and the goalkeeper had an easy day because of it.

Player ratings3 Apr 2028

Nobody could get near Jorge Rojas

Successful dribbles: 20. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

A defender's afternoon for Joelson Gamarra

Defensive actions: 18. He was first to everything and second to nothing, and the goalkeeper had an easy day because of it.

Athos Thawan signs a new deal

Jorge Rojas 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 General Caballero this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad15 Nov 2027

Alberto Benítez Villalba is doing the arithmetic

The table has started to be checked before the results are in, and that is always the tell. Nobody at General Caballero says the word out loud, and everybody in the building is thinking it.

Squad15 Nov 2027

Matías Adamy asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Athos Thawan 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.

Boardroom8 Nov 2027

General Caballero sign a deal worth $272.5K a year

Commercial news is the news nobody sings about and everything else is paid for with. The board will call it a partnership; the accountants will call it the difference between this squad and a smaller one.

Match13 Mar 2027

No end in sight to General Caballero's wait for a win

8 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at General Caballero has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad15 Mar 2027

General Caballero lose Manuel Peralta Salinas

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

Jorge Rojas 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 General Caballero this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad15 Mar 2027

The manager makes an example of Junior Brítez

“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.

Match13 Mar 2027

General Caballero come up short against 12 de Octubre

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

Squad15 Mar 2027

Jorge Acosta out for 16 days

The medical room confirms 16 days on the sidelines for Jorge Acosta, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad14 Sep 2026

Weverton keeps Grêmio 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.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Tempers go at Grêmio

Arthur 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.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

A masterclass from Tetê

Marked 9.21 — 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.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Martin Braithwaite in the eights

A performance of 8.72 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

One of those days for Francis Amuzu

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.58, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Miguel Monsalve stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Miguel Monsalve and Grêmio agree another 5 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Match12 Sep 2026

Tetê rescues a point for Grêmio

It needed Tetê to find the net to bring anything home at all: 4‑4 against Fluminense, and half the dressing room will call it a point won.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Nobody could get near Juan Ignacio Nardoni

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

Squad14 Sep 2026

No hiding place for Caio Paulista

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