Match

The cup run ends for Tigre

1‑1 against Central Córdoba SdE, and the road stops here. Cup exits are quick deaths — no second leg, no next week, just the league from now until May.

Squad

Lautaro Morales is the hero from the spot

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

Player ratings

Ian Subiabre, 19, plays like he has been here for years — 8.08

A mark of 8.08 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 19-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Player ratings

Martín Garay was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 24. 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.

Boardroom

Lucas Pedraza will join Tigre for nothing

The paperwork is done long before the player is. Lucas Pedraza has agreed terms to come here when his current deal runs out, which means Tigre have spent a summer's transfer budget on a phone call.

Match

A bad afternoon for Tigre against Rosario Central

1‑2 to Rosario Central, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

The dugout

No hiding place for Bruno Leyes

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

Match

Tigre refuse to lose to Central Córdoba SdE

A point taken on 95 minutes is worth exactly one point and considerably more than that to a dressing room. This side does not stop, which is a reputation worth more than the result.

Player ratings

The kick that got away from Nicolás Pantaleone

Twelve yards, a goalkeeper guessing, and it still did not go in. He will take the next one, and every soul in the ground will hold their breath.

In brief

  • Squad A row about effort at Tigre
  • Squad 13 new faces, and Tigre are still learning each other
  • The dugout The view from the dugout

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Match

Cup progress for Tigre

A 5‑3 win over Alvarado, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

Match

Ignacio Russo settles it late for Tigre

The 85th minute, half the ground already edging towards the exits, and Ignacio Russo decided nobody was going anywhere. Aldosivi had no time left to answer.

Player ratings

Ivo Kestler scores twice — 8.83

Two goals and a mark of 8.83 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Santiago López

Successful dribbles: 30. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Player ratings

No sign of nerves from Ian Subiabre at 19 — 8.57

The hardest thing about being 19 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Ian Subiabre did not need any: 8.57, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Match

8 goals as Tigre and Alvarado go for it

Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 8 goals between Tigre and Alvarado, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

Boardroom

Tigre agree a free transfer for Allam Wlk

Nothing happens for months and then he simply arrives, at no cost, having signed a pre-contract while still turning out for somebody else. It is the least dramatic way to sign a footballer and frequently the shrewdest.

The terraces

One of their own: Jabes Saralegui

He is 23 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.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Gonzalo Martínez

“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.

Player ratings

Jabes Saralegui runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 29. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market

Ivo Kestler turns Huesca down

“It was not right for me. I am not going to explain why to anybody except the people I owe an explanation to.” A deal agreed between two clubs, and a player who declined to be part of it.

Squad

A one-man rearguard from Felipe Zenobio

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Squad

A falling-out at Tigre

Alan Barrionuevo and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Match

A bad afternoon for Tigre against Argentinos Juniors

0‑1 to Argentinos Juniors, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

The dugout

Juan Carlos Rojas answers for it

“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 0‑1, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Federico Álvarez

“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

A Tigre teenager takes the young player award

Ian Subiabre is 19, and for one weekend he was the best of everybody his age in the division. Nobody should build a career on it and everybody quietly does.

Market

The Felipe Zenobio question follows Tigre around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Felipe Zenobio’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Player ratings

Ian Subiabre, 19, steals the show — 7.88

Marked 7.88 at 19, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

Market

Tigre turn down Eibar for Juan Manuel Villalba

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad

Felipe Zenobio signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Felipe Zenobio and Tigre agree another 3 years.

Squad

Words at Tigre training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Felipe Zenobio 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 manager makes an example of Felipe Zenobio

“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.

Match

No time for Independiente Rivadavia to settle

The goal that put Independiente Rivadavia ahead was still being replayed on the concourse when Tigre equalised, 4 minutes later. Leads are only worth what you do with them.

Squad

A falling-out at Tigre

Gonzalo Requena and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Martín Garay

Successful dribbles: 17. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market

The clock runs on Gonzalo Martínez's contract

24 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.
