Market8 Apr 2030

Jorge Cabezudo has one foot out of the door

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

Leandro Ballota: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Cesar Vallejo have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad8 Apr 2030

Johan Madrid signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Johan Madrid commits to Cesar Vallejo for another 2 years.

Squad8 Apr 2030

Luis Ramos 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 Cesar Vallejo this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad8 Apr 2030

Maximiliano Salas 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.

Luis Ramos was the difference for Cesar Vallejo

Marked 7.86. Ask anyone leaving the ground what settled it and you will get one name, which is the only award that has ever really counted.

Nothing got past Jesús Alcantar

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 14 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Adriano Neciosup told to find a new club

“They were honest with me, and I would rather know.” Adriano Neciosup has been informed he is not in the manager's thinking at Cesar Vallejo.

Match31 Mar 2029

Luis Ramos wins it after the whistle should have gone

90 minutes played. Luis Ramos found the finish in time that only existed because of earlier delays, and UTC went from a point to nothing inside one movement.

Squad2 Apr 2029

Leandro Ballota says Cesar Vallejo went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Rodrigo Benítez 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.

Match31 Mar 2029

Nobody wants to play Cesar Vallejo right now

3 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.

Squad2 Apr 2029

Tempers go at Cesar Vallejo

Jeferson Nolasco 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.

Squad2 Apr 2029

Words at Cesar Vallejo training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Luis Ramos 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.

Match31 Mar 2029

Luis Ramos sends Cesar Vallejo past UTC

It finished 1‑0, and it was Luis Ramos’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Cesar Vallejo.

Player ratings2 Apr 2029

Ninety minutes of Luis Ramos at his very best

Marked 8.17. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Cesar Vallejo.

Squad2 Apr 2029

Alejandro Ramírez 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.
