The Nomme Kalju Courier

22 Feb 2027
From our football correspondent Steady

Market

Mattias Männilaan 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 Nomme Kalju can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Home is on Gabriel Fjellstad Olsen's mind

“Some mornings you wake up and you are still a long way from everything you know.” It is not the football and it never was; Nomme Kalju are dealing with a man who wants a different country.

Squad

Modou Tambedou 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 Nomme Kalju this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The Nomme Kalju Courier

15 Feb 2027
From our football correspondent Steady

Squad

Tempers go at Nomme Kalju

Kristjan Kask 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.

Squad

No hiding place for Henri Perk

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

Squad

Home is on Agustín Rivero's mind

“Some mornings you wake up and you are still a long way from everything you know.” It is not the football and it never was; Nomme Kalju are dealing with a man who wants a different country.

The Club America Post

21 Sep 2026
From our football correspondent Triumph

Squad

Sebastián Cáceres takes the match ball home

3 goals in one afternoon from one man. The other players were also present, a witness confirmed.

Match

Club America make it 5 in a row

Momentum is a hard thing to buy and an easy thing to lose, and right now Club America have 5 straight wins of it.

Squad

Henry Martín 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 Club America this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

Raphael Veiga 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.

Player ratings

Sebastián Cáceres in the eights

A performance of 9.99 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Match

Club America find a way past Atlas

Atlas made Club America work for it, but the scoreboard read 3‑2 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Alejandro Zendejas

Marked 9.20 — 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.

Squad

Luis Malagón 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.

Squad

Costly mistake from Luis Malagón

An error at the back is a moment; an error in goal is a goal. Luis Malagón knows it, the crowd knew it instantly, and there was nobody behind him to make it anything else.
