Market30 Jul 2029

Thiago Domínguez asks to leave Mitre

“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.

Player ratings30 Jul 2029

Ezequiel González runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 23. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad30 Jul 2029

Nicolás Goitea 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 Mitre this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Nicolás Goitea shuts the door

Defensive actions: 20, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

Squad30 Jul 2029

No hiding place for Luca Sapiente

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Luca Sapiente, and the manager let it.

Segundo Rodríguez shuts the door

Defensive actions: 13, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

Match28 Jul 2029

Mitre draw a blank against Almirante Brown

The crowd waited for a goal that never came. Almirante Brown defended in numbers and left with what they came for, and the two sides could be playing still without troubling a scorer.

Nothing got past Facundo Wiechniak

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 12 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Squad30 Jul 2029

Santiago Rosales unhappy with how he is being used

Asked to play a role that is not his, or taken off before the hour once too often — Santiago Rosales has let it be known that he does not like the way Mitre are using him. Managers hear this long before the press does.

Blas Videla asks to leave Mitre

“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.

Nicolás Goitea 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 Mitre this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad27 Nov 2028

Nicolás Ruiz Paz 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 Mitre, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Squad18 Sep 2028

Jesús Juárez keeps Mitre in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 8 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

One of those days for Santiago Rosales

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.26, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Player ratings18 Sep 2028

A masterclass from José María Ingratti

Marked 8.27 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Squad18 Sep 2028

Kun signs on for more

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

Squad18 Sep 2028

Facundo Wiechniak 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.

Match16 Sep 2028

Honours even between Mitre and Godoy Cruz

1‑1, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

Market18 Sep 2028

The Ezequiel González talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Mitre know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Player ratings18 Sep 2028

Facundo Wiechniak never got going

5.65 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.

Agustín Rocha runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 29. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market28 Aug 2028

Blas Videla 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 Mitre, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad28 Aug 2028

Santiago Rosales is in the form of his life

A season average of 7.68 with 9 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

Nicolás Goitea 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 Mitre this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match26 Aug 2028

Mitre come up short against Estudiantes

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