Marked for Alejandro Garay

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Match27 Nov 2027

10 unbeaten for Juventude

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 10 matches without defeat is a foundation Juventude did not have in the autumn.

Squad29 Nov 2027

Evertton Araújo 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 Juventude this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match27 Nov 2027

Juventude make home a hard place to visit

9 without defeat on their own grass. The pitch has not changed; the crowd has — louder earlier, and quicker to sense when the opposition would rather be somewhere else.

Match27 Nov 2027

Juventude get the job done against Palmeiras

A 2‑1 win over Palmeiras, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Player ratings29 Nov 2027

A masterclass from Marcos Paulo

Marked 8.21 — 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.

The dugout29 Nov 2027

Pablo Roberto gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

The dugout29 Nov 2027

Marcelo Soares has his say

“We earned that. I asked them for a reaction and I got one, and now I want the same again on Saturday.” Marcelo Soares on a 2‑1 afternoon that pleased him more than he was prepared to show.

Squad29 Nov 2027

Relebohile Mofokeng is in the form of his life

A season average of 7.24 with 3 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

Squad29 Nov 2027

A Juventude teenager takes the young player award

Alejandro Garay is 20, 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.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Match20 Nov 2027

9 unbeaten for Juventude

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 9 matches without defeat is a foundation Juventude did not have in the autumn.

Squad22 Nov 2027

Tempers go at Juventude

Evertton Araújo 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 dugout22 Nov 2027

Messias gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Player ratings22 Nov 2027

A masterclass from Manuel Castro

Marked 8.27 — 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.

Loan watch22 Nov 2027

Carlos Junior wants to come home

“I did not go to Juazeirense to sit and watch. I want to come back to Juventude and fight for my place.” 5 appearances in 47 matches say the rest.

Match20 Nov 2027

Juventude share the spoils with Sport Recife

A 2‑2 draw with Sport Recife leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

The dugout22 Nov 2027

Patryck Lanza has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Juventude 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 dugout22 Nov 2027

The manager’s verdict

“I am frustrated, honestly. We did enough to win and we did not win.” Marcelo Soares was not hiding it after 2‑2, and nobody in the Juventude dressing room was either.

Squad22 Nov 2027

Messias suspended

One booking too many, and Messias sits out. Juventude lose him for the sort of avoidable reason that makes a manager's week longer.
