Match

Cup progress for Unión de Santa Fe

A 6‑1 win over San Martín de Burzaco, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

Squad

A day Dylan Greco 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.

Player ratings

Dylan Greco, 21, steals the show — 8.15

Marked 8.15 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 ratings

Vintage Cristian Tarragona — 7.85

At 35 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 7.85, and nobody on the pitch better.

Player ratings

Ignacio Isla goes up and wins it — 7.30

A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.30 for the rest of it.

Boardroom

Mateo Raschia has agreed to leave Unión de Santa Fe for nothing

He will play here until the summer and then walk out of the door for free, having already signed elsewhere. Supporters will manage the first part of that sentence; it is the second they will struggle with.

Match

Nobody could stop scoring

7 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about Unión de Santa Fe and San Martín de Burzaco in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.

Squad

Mauro Pittón 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 terraces

Unión de Santa Fe supporters have found a favourite in Maizon Rodríguez

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Maizon Rodríguez has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

In brief
