Market19 Jul 2027

Raúl Chamorro asks to leave Racing

“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.

Match17 Jul 2027

No end in sight to Racing's wait for a win

6 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Racing has to find a result from somewhere.

Market19 Jul 2027

Al-Shabab come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Racing did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Squad19 Jul 2027

Tempers go at Racing

Abel Bustos 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.

Facundo Taborda 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.

Squad19 Jul 2027

Pablo Chavarría 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.

Match17 Jul 2027

A bad afternoon for Racing against Belgrano

0‑2 to Belgrano, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

The dugout19 Jul 2027

The manager makes an example of Brian Olivera

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

The dugout19 Jul 2027

The manager’s verdict

“That is on me. I pick the team and I picked wrong.” Managers say that when they mean it and when they need to be seen to, and after 0‑2 Agustín Cabrera left the room before anybody could ask which.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Market12 Jul 2027

Matías Machado 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 Racing can pretend not to have heard.

The dugout12 Jul 2027

Leonel Monti keeps the receipts

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

Market12 Jul 2027

Ignacio Valsangiácomo has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Racing they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad12 Jul 2027

Words exchanged at Racing

Abel Bustos and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Market12 Jul 2027

Al-Shabab join the queue for Joel Erlinch

Add another name to the list: Al-Shabab have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Joel Erlinch. The answer from Racing has not changed — yet.

Squad12 Jul 2027

Words at Racing training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Santiago Rinaudo 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.

The dugout12 Jul 2027

No hiding place for Sebastián Marfort

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

The dugout12 Jul 2027

A promise honoured at Racing

Something was said to Alan Olinick and then it happened. In this industry that passes for remarkable, and the dressing room noticed faster than any supporter could.

From our football correspondent Steady

Match21 Apr 2027

Racing through in the cup

A 2‑0 win over Güemes, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Match24 Apr 2027

Barracas Central punish Racing for switching off

3 goals to the good, and then a slow surrender of everything that had been earned. Pablo Chavarría will not be the one blamed for it, but nobody at Racing escapes the conversation that follows a collapse like this.

Market26 Apr 2027

Abel Bustos 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 Racing, and it is not being withdrawn.

Player ratings26 Apr 2027

A brace, and Pablo Chavarría takes the afternoon — 9.35

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Pablo Chavarría provided it, and the 9.35 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Player ratings26 Apr 2027

Both of them Ricardo Centurión's — 9.10

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 9.10, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Match24 Apr 2027

Racing come up short against Barracas Central

Barracas Central left with the points after a 4‑5 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad26 Apr 2027

Tempers go at Racing

Abel Bustos 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.

The terraces26 Apr 2027

The crowd has taken to Joel Erlinch

At 21 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

The dugout26 Apr 2027

No hiding place for Gonzalo Rostagno

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