The Cesar Vallejo Sentinel

From our football correspondent Crisis

Squad

Jorge Cabezudo stands alone

10 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.

Market

Jorge Cabezudo hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Cesar Vallejo can pretend not to have heard.

Match

No end in sight to Cesar Vallejo's wait for a win

4 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Cesar Vallejo has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad

Words exchanged at Cesar Vallejo

Alex Valera 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.

Market

Pablo Muñoz is a Cesar Vallejo player again

He left as a boy and has come back still knowing where the away end is. Most signings have to be explained to a town; this one needed a photograph and nothing else.

Boardroom

Graduation day at Cesar Vallejo

5 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Market

One of our own: Wilder Lapadula joins the Cesar Vallejo first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Wilder Lapadula is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market

One of our own: Renato Garces joins the Cesar Vallejo first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Renato Garces is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Match

Cesar Vallejo come up short against Alianza Lima

Alianza Lima left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

In brief
