Player ratings5 Jul 2027

Nobody could get near Marlon Yan

Successful dribbles: 37. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match29 Jun 2027

Ituano out of the cup

Ponte Preta ended it 0‑1. The season narrows to the league now, and everyone in the ground knew it before the final whistle.

The terraces5 Jul 2027

Supporters organise against the Ituano board

A bad atmosphere can be waited out. A group of people meeting afterwards to decide what to do about it cannot, and everybody in the building knows which stage this is.

Player ratings5 Jul 2027

Gustavo Santana, 21, steals the show — 7.81

Marked 7.81 at 21, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

Match3 Jul 2027

At last: Ituano win one

9 matches without a win, and then this, against São Bernardo. Relief is a strange noise in a football ground and it was the only noise at the end.

Market5 Jul 2027

Ituano may not be able to give Luiz Felipe what he wants

It is the most legitimate ambition in the sport and the hardest for most clubs to satisfy. Luiz Felipe wants continental football; whether Ituano can provide it is a question about the next two seasons, not about him.

Squad5 Jul 2027

Words exchanged at Ituano

Guilherme Xavier 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.

Market5 Jul 2027

Marthã moves on

São Bernardo pay $520.0K, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Market5 Jul 2027

Business is business: JP Abreu goes

Ypiranga paid $220.0K and Ituano took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Back issues

The Ypiranga Courier

5 Jul 2027
From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad5 Jul 2027

Breno Pereira damages knee ligaments — 23 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 23 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Match29 Jun 2027

The cup run ends for Ypiranga

0‑1 against Sport Recife, and the road stops here. Cup exits are quick deaths — no second leg, no next week, just the league from now until May.

Transfer targets5 Jul 2027

Ypiranga make their move for Pedro Henrique

$930.0K on the table at Bragantino. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Player ratings5 Jul 2027

Tobías Torrielli runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 24. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market5 Jul 2027

Ypiranga sign Luís Henrique for $170.0K

The paperwork is done: Luís Henrique joins from Boavista in a deal worth $170.0K. Now comes the harder part.

Squad5 Jul 2027

Words exchanged at Ypiranga

Breno Pereira 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.

Transfer targets5 Jul 2027

Door shut on Gallito

Ypiranga asked and Horizonte said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad5 Jul 2027

Yan 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.

The dugout5 Jul 2027

The manager makes an example of Bruno Henrique

“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 Ypiranga Courier

From our football correspondent Triumph

Squad28 Jun 2027

A knee injury of the worst kind for Breno Pereira

30 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Ypiranga lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Match26 Jun 2027

Ypiranga make home a hard place to visit

13 without defeat on their own grass. The pitch has not changed; the crowd has — louder earlier, and quicker to sense when the opposition would rather be somewhere else.

Player ratings28 Jun 2027

Raykkonen, 18, plays like he has been here for years — 7.67

A mark of 7.67 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 18-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Transfer targets28 Jun 2027

Fee done, terms next for JP Abreu

Ypiranga and Ituano have settled on $220.0K. The rest belongs to the player and his agent, and a supporter who has watched one of these before knows not to buy the shirt yet.

Match26 Jun 2027

Ypiranga make it 4 in a row

Momentum is a hard thing to buy and an easy thing to lose, and right now Ypiranga have 4 straight wins of it.

Squad28 Jun 2027

The step up is real for Andrei

At 22 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Player ratings28 Jun 2027

Robert Santos scored one and made one — 7.97

Two of the goals had his name somewhere on them, which is the afternoon a manager wants from anybody asked to both create and finish. 7.97, and 2 involvements.

Transfer targets28 Jun 2027

Door shut on Pedro Henrique

Ypiranga asked and Bragantino said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad28 Jun 2027

Vinícius Matheus 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 Ypiranga this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

In brief
