Marked for Wesley

Player ratings19 Oct 2026

Luis Sinisterra was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 27. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Market19 Oct 2026

Kaio Jorge wants to know where this is going

“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at Cruzeiro hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

Squad19 Oct 2026

The step up is real for Wesley

At 21 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

Cássio 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.

Match17 Oct 2026

Palmeiras take the points off Cruzeiro

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad19 Oct 2026

William reaches 200 appearances

200 games in the shirt. Nobody sets out to build a record like that; it happens to a certain kind of player at a certain kind of club, and this town knows what it has.

Squad19 Oct 2026

Tempers go at Cruzeiro

Fágner 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.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

Guilherme Assis answers for it

“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 0‑1, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

The form table has caught Gabriel Rojas

Somebody else has been better, the manager has said so with a team sheet, and there is no argument to be had. He will get the shirt back the only way it can be got back.

Match9 Sep 2026

Cup progress for Cruzeiro

A 3‑2 win over Novorizontino, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

Market14 Sep 2026

William asks to leave Cruzeiro

“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.

Match9 Sep 2026

Cruzeiro win it in stoppage time

The board had gone up, the arguing had started, and then the ball was in the net in the 103th minute. Novorizontino will replay every second of the added time for a week.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

A brace, and Kaio Jorge takes the afternoon — 8.95

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Kaio Jorge provided it, and the 8.95 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Market14 Sep 2026

Zé Lucas turns Dinamo Tbilisi down

“It was not right for me. I am not going to explain why to anybody except the people I owe an explanation to.” A deal agreed between two clubs, and a player who declined to be part of it.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

João Costa, 21, steals the show — 8.34

Marked 8.34 at 21, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Wesley was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 27. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Both jobs done by Lucas Romero — 6.87

A midfielder is measured on whether the team functions when he is on the pitch, which is nearly impossible to see and completely obvious in retrospect. 18 actions, 6.87, and a manager who will not be substituting him again in a hurry.

Market14 Sep 2026

Matheus Henrique raises the bar for Cruzeiro

“I want to be playing for trophies while my legs still let me.” Nothing in that sentence is a transfer request, and nobody at Cruzeiro heard it as anything else.

In brief

  • The dugout The manager makes an example of Cássio
  • The terraces One of their own: João Costa
  • The dugout The manager has not finished forgetting Matheus Pereira's mistake

Squad31 Aug 2026

A day Wesley will not forget

4 goals in one game. The first was taken well, the second was taken greedily, and by the third the crowd were simply waiting for him to get the ball.

Match25 Aug 2026

Cruzeiro march on in the cup

Anápolis are out and Cruzeiro go through, 9‑0 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Market31 Aug 2026

Lucas Romero 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 Cruzeiro can pretend not to have heard.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

A brace, and Luis Sinisterra takes the afternoon — 8.55

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Luis Sinisterra provided it, and the 8.55 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Squad31 Aug 2026

A day João Costa will not forget

3 goals in one game. The first was taken well, the second was taken greedily, and by the third the crowd were simply waiting for him to get the ball.

Market31 Aug 2026

Keny Arroyo says no to FK Csíkszereda

“I listened, I thought about it, and I am staying. That is the whole story.” The clubs had agreed a fee. Keny Arroyo had not agreed to go, which turned out to be the part that mattered.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

João Costa, 21, steals the show — 8.44

Marked 8.44 at 21, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

Match25 Aug 2026

Nobody could stop scoring

9 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about Cruzeiro and Anápolis in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.

The dugout31 Aug 2026

Kaio Jorge 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.
