Market

Nicolás Retamar has his eye on Europe

It is not a grievance and it is not a demand: he wants to play continental football, and he has stopped hiding it. Whether Ferro Carril Oeste can give him that is a question about the club, not about him.

Squad

Words exchanged at Ferro Carril Oeste

Federico Tevez 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.

Squad

A row about effort at Ferro Carril Oeste

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Gustavo Canto was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Fernando Monetti

“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.

Player ratings

Jonathan Menéndez beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 17. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Player ratings

Mateo Acosta takes the honours

Marked 7.55 on an afternoon he ran from the first whistle to the last. Whatever else went wrong, Ferro Carril Oeste had the best player on the pitch.

Match

Ferro Carril Oeste and Almagro take a point apiece

It finished 1‑1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

The dugout

The manager’s verdict

“I am frustrated, honestly. We did enough to win and we did not win.” Mario Torres was not hiding it after 1‑1, and nobody in the Ferro Carril Oeste dressing room was either.

Squad

The first one for Mateo Acosta

Every signing waits for it and every press conference asks about it until it comes. It has come, Ferro Carril Oeste have their man off the mark, and the second one is always easier.

In brief
