Squad17 May 2027

Pedro Ramírez damages knee ligaments — 68 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 68 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.

Match15 May 2027

Chastening afternoon for Deportivo Riestra

A 0‑3 beating by Platense was the sort of result that empties a stadium long before the final whistle.

Match15 May 2027

The wait goes on for Deportivo Riestra

8 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Squad17 May 2027

Ignacio Arce stands alone

8 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Squad17 May 2027

Words exchanged at Deportivo Riestra

Mariano Bracamonte 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.

Match15 May 2027

The goals have deserted Deportivo Riestra

3 matches, no goals, and a training ground that has tried everything. It will end — droughts always do — but nobody at Deportivo Riestra can tell you which week it ends in.

Facundo Millar 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.

Boardroom17 May 2027

Nobody left the Deportivo Riestra dressing room in a hurry

The door stayed shut a long time after the final whistle. What was said in there is between them; whether it worked is between them and Saturday.

The dugout17 May 2027

Nicolás Otero: “No excuses”

“I could talk about decisions and I could talk about luck. I will not. We lost.” The manager, 0‑3, and a press conference that lasted four minutes.

Squad29 Mar 2027

The knee: Pedro Ramírez out for 122 days

122 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Deportivo Riestra lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Words exchanged at Deportivo Riestra

Mariano Bracamonte 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.

Match27 Mar 2027

Deportivo Riestra come up short against Newell's Old Boys

Newell's Old Boys left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Nicolás Sansotre 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.

The dugout29 Mar 2027

The view from the dugout

“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 0‑2 defeat, delivered by Nicolás Otero to a room that had heard them before.

Squad29 Mar 2027

A first team debut at 18 for Facundo Millar

Off the academy pitches and into a senior shirt, at 18. The parents in the stand will keep the programme, and so will he.

The dugout29 Mar 2027

The plan did not have a place for Pablo Monje

Nobody at Deportivo Riestra is suggesting he is out of form. The manager simply wanted somebody with a different set of qualities for ninety specific minutes, and there is nothing a player can train to fix that.

The dugout29 Mar 2027

Marino Arzamendia gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Marino Arzamendia is on it.

Player ratings29 Mar 2027

Nicolás Benegas was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 9. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.
