The Plaza Colonia Chronicle
Player ratings22 Mar 2027
Nothing got past Silvio López
Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 41 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Kevin Morgan decides it from twelve yards
2 kept out in the shoot-out, and a stadium that will still be describing them in twenty years. A goalkeeper only needs one of these to be remembered forever.
Match17 Mar 2027
Plaza Colonia through in the cup
A 0‑0 win over Miramar Misiones, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.
Squad22 Mar 2027
Lucas Carrizo takes the match ball home
3 goals in one afternoon from one man. The other players were also present, a witness confirmed.

Gustavo Reis 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 The request is on a desk at Plaza Colonia, and it is not being withdrawn.

Tempers go at Plaza Colonia
Lucas Carrizo 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.

Ninety minutes of Lucas Carrizo at his very best
Marked 10.00. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Plaza Colonia.
Match20 Mar 2027
Lucas Carrizo the difference as Plaza Colonia beat Juventud
Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Lucas Carrizo. 4‑3 against Juventud, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.
Match20 Mar 2027
Nobody could stop scoring
7 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about Plaza Colonia and Juventud in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.
