Match

Huracán march on in the cup

Defensores Unidos are out and Huracán go through, 3‑2 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Match

Cruel end for Defensores Unidos as Huracán pounce

There is no crueller way to lose a football match. Huracán scored in the 91th minute, the restart barely happened, and the away end was still standing when the whistle went.

Squad

87 days out for Nazareno Durán after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Huracán will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Player ratings

No sign of nerves from Nahuel Maldonado at 19 — 8.72

The hardest thing about being 19 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Nahuel Maldonado did not need any: 8.72, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Match

No clean sheets in sight for Huracán

5 games now with at least two against. The back line has been rearranged, the goalkeeper has been backed publicly, and the goals keep going in anyway.

Squad

A row about effort at Huracán

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Leonardo Gil was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Player ratings

Juan Bisanz was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 20. 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.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Hernán Galíndez

“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 terraces

Huracán supporters have found a favourite in Lucas Ortíz

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 19-year-old it feels ownership of. Lucas Ortíz 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.
