From our football correspondent Crisis

Squad4 Sep 2028

A one-man rearguard from Rodrigo Parra

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.

Squad4 Sep 2028

Orlando Botello: 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.” Dorados have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad4 Sep 2028

Carlos Gutiérrez 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 Dorados this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad4 Sep 2028

Real improvement from Jesús Jiménez at Dorados

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Jesús Jiménez is 22, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Match2 Sep 2028

Dorados cannot find the net

3 games without scoring. Strikers stop looking up, midfielders take the extra touch, and every shot that clears the bar is followed by a groan that has been building since the last goal.

Match2 Sep 2028

Dorados come up short against Pumas UNAM

Pumas UNAM left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Player ratings4 Sep 2028

The chances came and went for Eduardo Mustre

11 shots, and a count that reads like a good afternoon until you check the other column. Strikers survive weeks like this on the understanding that the chances keep arriving; the day they stop is the day it becomes a problem.

Player ratings4 Sep 2028

Facundo Sánchez could not find anything

5.42. Every footballer has these and most of them happen away from a full ground; his did not, and he will be aware of that all week.

Player ratings4 Sep 2028

Jaime Álvarez never got going

5.46 on the card. Some afternoons a footballer looks like a man who has only just been introduced to the game, and this was one of them.

Back issues

24 Apr 2028
From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad24 Apr 2028

A knee injury of the worst kind for Edson Gutiérrez

39 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Dorados lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Market24 Apr 2028

Osciel De La Cruz 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 Dorados, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market24 Apr 2028

Only the photograph left for Jorge Mora

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Jorge Mora will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Dorados the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad24 Apr 2028

Tempers go at Dorados

Carlos Gutiérrez 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.

Squad24 Apr 2028

Jaime Álvarez signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Jaime Álvarez commits to Dorados for another 3 years.

Squad24 Apr 2028

Words at Dorados training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Omar Mireles 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.

Squad17 Apr 2028

A knee injury of the worst kind for Edson Gutiérrez

48 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Dorados lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Match17 Apr 2028

Dorados sink to position 18

19 points, and a fixture list that is running out. The mathematics are not yet cruel, but they are no longer kind.

Market17 Apr 2028

Alberto Joshimar Acosta 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 Dorados, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad17 Apr 2028

Jaime Álvarez keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Dorados may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad17 Apr 2028

Carlos Gutiérrez 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 Dorados this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Loan watch17 Apr 2028

Emanuel Ley wants to come home

“I did not go to Chiapas to sit and watch. I want to come back to Dorados and fight for my place.” 6 appearances in 37 matches say the rest.

Match1 Nov 2027

Dorados are in real trouble now

Position 18, 9 points, and a fixture list with fewer games left in it than excuses. The arithmetic is not cruel yet, but it has stopped being kind.

Market1 Nov 2027

Salvador Manríquez 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 Dorados, and it is not being withdrawn.

Match30 Oct 2027

The wait goes on for Dorados

5 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Squad1 Nov 2027

Tempers go at Dorados

Carlos Gutiérrez 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.

Squad1 Nov 2027

Carlos Adrián Sánchez 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.

Match30 Oct 2027

Toluca take the points off Dorados

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad1 Nov 2027

Josué Reyes 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.

Loan watch1 Nov 2027

Emanuel Ley wants to come home

“I did not go to Chiapas to sit and watch. I want to come back to Dorados and fight for my place.” 3 appearances in 13 matches say the rest.

Squad1 Nov 2027

5 new faces, and Dorados are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.
