Squad

Emilio MacEachen falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

Tempers go at Artigas

Hugo Paz 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.

Squad

Octavio Pereira knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Artigas, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Squad

Words at Artigas training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Emilio MacEachen 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.

Tempers go at Artigas

Market

The shop window has Luiz in it

Artigas have let the market know Luiz can be had. No price in the advert, but everyone in the trade knows roughly what it says.

Squad

Luiz keeps Artigas in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 16 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Match

Chastening afternoon for Artigas

A 0‑5 beating by Fenix was the sort of result that empties a stadium long before the final whistle.

Market

Luiz asks to leave Artigas

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

Yonathan Gorgoroso signs on for more

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

Boardroom

Nobody left the Artigas dressing room in a hurry

The door stayed shut a long time after the final whistle. What was said in there is between them; whether it worked is between them and Saturday.

Market

The clock runs on Yonathan Gorgoroso's contract

36 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.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Carlos da Rosa

Successful dribbles: 14. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.
