Match

Estudiantes de Caracas see off Aragua

Three points for Estudiantes de Caracas, 1-0 the final word against Aragua in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad

Juan Ron stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Juan Ron and Estudiantes de Caracas agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Raudy Guerrero

“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.

Squad

Mario Ferrari is in the form of his life

A season average of 7.21 with 2 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

Squad

Mario Ferrari 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 — Mario Ferrari has let it be known that he does not like the way Estudiantes de Caracas are using him. Managers hear this long before the press does.

Market

Estudiantes de Caracas bring in Esteban Calderón on loan

A season-long audition: O'Higgins still own him, but the shirt and the minutes are Estudiantes de Caracas's to give. A loan is a bet both clubs believe they are winning.

Market

Estudiantes de Caracas sell Luis Murillo for $140.0K

Match

Estudiantes de Caracas see off Deportivo Lara

Three points for Estudiantes de Caracas, 1-0 the final word against Deportivo Lara in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad

José Antonio Montilla 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.

Squad

Luis Castillo is in the form of his life

A season average of 7.26 with 3 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

Market

Estudiantes de Caracas bring in an old head

Raudy Guerrero is 33 and has run out of things to prove. What he has left is where to stand, when to slow it down and what to say at half-time, and none of that is on a fitness chart.

Market

Darwin Otero is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at Estudiantes de Caracas has been clear about where Darwin Otero stands, which is more than many ever get.

Squad

Somebody is after Francisco Ferraresi’s shirt
