Player ratings

Both of them Fernando Mimbacas's — 9.11

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 9.11, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Alejo Cruz

Successful dribbles: 31. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match

Juventud cannot stop winning

3 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.

Match

Juventud find a way past Racing

Racing made Juventud work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Squad

Words at Juventud training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. David Morosini is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The dugout

The view from the dugout

“We controlled it. There were spells I did not like and we will look at them, but the group showed me something.” Jonathan Aguirre, on a 2‑0 win that he was already picking apart on the walk to the press room.

The dugout

Federico Andrade does not fit this one

Ninety specific minutes wanted a different sort of player, and the manager picked one. He is not out of form and he is not in the side, and both are true.

The dugout

Facundo Pérez has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Juventud will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

The dugout

Emmanuel Mas knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Emmanuel Mas trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Match

Juventud tear Plaza Colonia apart

Rarely has this fixture seen a display like it: 4‑1 against Plaza Colonia, and it could have been more.

Player ratings

Fernando Mimbacas scores twice — 9.55

Two goals and a mark of 9.55 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Player ratings

A brace, and Bruno Larregui takes the afternoon — 9.33

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Bruno Larregui provided it, and the 9.33 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Squad

Words exchanged at Juventud

Sebastián Sosa and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Match

Whatever happens, Juventud do not lose

6 games unbeaten now. Some were earned and some were survived, but a habit is forming — and habits are the hardest thing in football to play against.

Match

Plaza Colonia blown away early

There is a particular helplessness in conceding 2 times before the twentieth minute. Plaza Colonia tried to reorganise, Juventud did not allow it, and the result was written long before it was confirmed.

Player ratings

Rodrigo Chagas runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 17. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Emanuel Cecchini

“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 dugout

A satisfied Jonathan Aguirre

“The players deserve the credit. My job was easy today.” It was not, and everybody in the room knew it; after 4‑1, Jonathan Aguirre could afford to be generous.

Match

The small margins put Juventud out

Out, 1‑1 to Nacional, and the long argument about which of the small moments decided it. The league is all there is now, and everybody knows it.

Squad

Nicolás Rossi is the hero from the spot

A shoot-out is remembered by its ending, and this one ends with Nicolás Rossi: 1 kept out, and a set of supporters who will describe every one of them for the next twenty years.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Alejo Cruz

Successful dribbles: 24. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Rodrigo Chagas 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 Juventud this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

Fernando Mimbacas the difference as Juventud beat Cerro Largo

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Fernando Mimbacas. 2‑0 against Cerro Largo, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Federico Andrade

“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.

Squad

Words at Juventud training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. David Morosini is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Fernando Mimbacas

Marked 8.20 — 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.

Player ratings

Facundo Pérez in the eights

A performance of 8.06 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Match

Juventud run riot against Liverpool Montevideo

3‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Player ratings

Bruno Larregui scores twice — 8.95

Two goals and a mark of 8.95 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Squad

A move Federico Andrade would have made for nothing

There is a version of every career where the player ends up somewhere he chose rather than somewhere that chose him. Federico Andrade is living that version at Juventud, and it tends to show in the first month.

Squad

Sebastián Sosa keeps Juventud in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Market

Facundo Pérez has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Juventud they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Boardroom

Facundo Pérez signs for Montevideo City Torque while still at Juventud

The rules permit it and it stings anyway. Facundo Pérez has agreed terms with Montevideo City Torque for the summer, and until then he pulls on this shirt as a player who has already chosen his next one.

Squad

Rodrigo Chagas signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Rodrigo Chagas commits to Juventud for another 4 years.

Squad

Words exchanged at Juventud

Sebastián Sosa and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Rodrigo Chagas

At 22 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.
