Player ratings

Both of them Paulinho's — 8.53

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.53, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Squad

Tempers go at Toluca

Alexis Vega 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.

Market

Helinho wants European nights

The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.

Match

Paulinho the difference as Toluca beat Morelia

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Paulinho. 3‑2 against Morelia, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Player ratings

Alexis Vega in the eights

A performance of 9.51 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Squad

Sebastián Córdova 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.

Player ratings

Jesús Ricardo Angulo in the eights

A performance of 8.50 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Squad

Costly mistake from Luis Manuel García

An error at the back is a moment; an error in goal is a goal. Luis Manuel García knows it, the crowd knew it instantly, and there was nobody behind him to make it anything else.

Loan watch

José Arroyo counts the days

“I watch every Toluca game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Leon runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

In brief
