Match

Gonzalo Gómez sends Juventud through

Cup ties wait for somebody to seize them, and Gonzalo Gómez obliged against Cerro. 1‑0 on the night, and the name in the next round’s hat is Juventud.

Match

Gonzalo Gómez wins it after the whistle should have gone

117 minutes played. Gonzalo Gómez found the finish in time that only existed because of earlier delays, and Cerro went from a point to nothing inside one movement.

Match

Juventud cannot stop winning

6 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.

Squad

Nicolás Rossi 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.

Player ratings

No sign of nerves from Gonzalo Gómez at 21 — 7.83

The hardest thing about being 21 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Gonzalo Gómez did not need any: 7.83, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Player ratings

Alejo Cruz beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 24. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Squad

Tempers go at Juventud

Sebastián Sosa 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 terraces

The crowd has taken to Rodrigo Chagas

At 23 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.

Match

Juventud see off Plaza Colonia

Three points for Juventud, 2‑0 the final word against Plaza Colonia in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad

Sebastián Sosa keeps Juventud in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 7 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Squad

Sebastián Sosa signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Sebastián Sosa commits to Juventud for another 2 years.

Player ratings

Nothing got past Patricio Pernicone

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 23 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Squad

Words exchanged at Juventud

Alejo Cruz 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.

Squad

A row about effort at Juventud

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

The terraces

One of their own: Pablo Lago

He is 19 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

Match

Bruno Larregui the difference as Juventud beat Liverpool Montevideo

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Bruno Larregui. 1‑0 against Liverpool Montevideo, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Player ratings

Bruno Larregui in the eights

A performance of 8.05 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Market

Nobody at Juventud has picked up the phone to Alejo Cruz

49 months to run and not a word offered. A club that lets the calendar negotiate for it usually ends up losing to the calendar.
