The Guarani Post
Player ratings22 Mar 2027
Both of them Fernando Fernández's — 9.08
2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 9.08, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Nobody could get near Jhon Jairo Sánchez
Successful dribbles: 26. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Whatever happens, Guarani 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.

Tempers go at Guarani
Gaspar Servio 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.

Fernando Fernández the difference as Guarani beat Sportivo Trinidense
Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Fernando Fernández. 2‑1 against Sportivo Trinidense, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

A satisfied Gustavo Gimenez
“The players deserve the credit. My job was easy today.” It was not, and everybody in the room knew it; after 2‑1, Gustavo Gimenez could afford to be generous.

Fernando Fernández gets picked when it counts
Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Fernando Fernández is on it.
The dugout22 Mar 2027
The manager makes an example of César Ramírez
“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.

A row about effort at Guarani
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Thiago Domínguez was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.
