From our football correspondent Uneasy

Boardroom19 Jan 2037

The silence upstairs is getting loud at Millonarios

Nobody on the board has said anything against the manager, which is the point — they have stopped saying anything for him either.

Squad19 Jan 2037

A fracture rules Edson out for 66 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Millonarios will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Market19 Jan 2037

Taigy Dugard puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Millonarios, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market19 Jan 2037

Only the photograph left for Fernando Gonzalez

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Fernando Gonzalez will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Millonarios the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad19 Jan 2037

Darwin Torres 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 Millonarios this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad19 Jan 2037

Millonarios count the cost of losing Juan Camilo Córdoba

14 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Boardroom8 Dec 2036

Franco Ramírez has until the next board meeting

What was said behind closed doors has now been said in front of a microphone. Everybody at Millonarios can do the arithmetic, including the man it is aimed at.

Squad8 Dec 2036

Edson breaks a bone — 111 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 111 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Boardroom8 Dec 2036

Crisis meeting at Millonarios

The official line will be that it was routine. It was not routine, the timing says so, and every person in that room knows what the next bad result costs.

Squad8 Dec 2036

Juan Camilo Córdoba says Millonarios went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Market8 Dec 2036

Taigy Dugard hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Millonarios can pretend not to have heard.

Market8 Dec 2036

Sebastián del Castillo attracts admirers

The name of Sebastián del Castillo has come up in conversations Millonarios were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Market8 Dec 2036

Millonarios turn down Deportivo Pasto for Fernando Gonzalez

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

Boardroom8 Dec 2036

Miguel Álvarez has agreed to leave Millonarios for nothing

He will play here until the summer and then walk out of the door for free, having already signed elsewhere. Supporters will manage the first part of that sentence; it is the second they will struggle with.

Squad8 Dec 2036

Darwin Torres 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 Millonarios this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad13 Oct 2036

A one-man rearguard from Julio Fierro

There were 8 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.

Market13 Oct 2036

Cristian Uparela hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Millonarios can pretend not to have heard.

Squad13 Oct 2036

Taigy Dugard: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Millonarios have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad13 Oct 2036

Darwin Torres 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 Millonarios this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad13 Oct 2036

Kevin Andrade 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.

Match11 Oct 2036

Millonarios get the job done against Deportivo Pereira

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

Player ratings13 Oct 2036

Jorge Muriel was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.39. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Player ratings13 Oct 2036

Ninety minutes of Andrés Dávila at his very best

Marked 8.33. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Millonarios.

Market13 Oct 2036

The Cristian Uribe question follows Millonarios around

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

From our football correspondent Steady

Squad9 Apr 2035

Juan Sebastián Herrera damages knee ligaments — 43 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 43 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Match7 Apr 2035

A 2-goal lead gone for Millonarios

It is a specific kind of quiet, a ground watching a winning position dissolve. Deportes Tolima kept coming because nothing stopped them, and Millonarios will be asked about the last half hour all week.

Player ratings9 Apr 2035

Both of them Yoshan Valois's — 8.87

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.87, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Squad9 Apr 2035

Kevin Andrade signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Kevin Andrade and Millonarios agree another 2 years.

Squad9 Apr 2035

Tempers go at Millonarios

Ezequiel Cannavo 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.

Player ratings9 Apr 2035

Edinson Largacha runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 21. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad9 Apr 2035

Words at Millonarios training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Kevin Andrade 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.

Match7 Apr 2035

Millonarios and Deportes Tolima take a point apiece

It finished 2‑2, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Player ratings9 Apr 2035

The one thing Darwin Torres could not do

Shots: 8, enough of them from close enough that a striker in form scores two. He is not a striker in form.
