The wait goes on for Maritimo
5 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.

Martín Tejón 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 Maritimo this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Real improvement from Pedro Gomes at Maritimo

No hiding place for Alfonso Pastor
“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Alfonso Pastor, and the manager let it.
