The Juan Aurich Courier

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad17 Jan 2028

Tempers go at Juan Aurich

Christian Ortiz 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.

Squad17 Jan 2028

Words at Juan Aurich training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Gabriel Delgado 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.

Squad17 Jan 2028

5 new faces, and Juan Aurich are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

Match5 Jun 2027

The wait goes on for Juan Aurich

9 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.

Boardroom7 Jun 2027

Pressure builds in the Juan Aurich boardroom

The directors have stopped offering the manager public warmth. In football that is usually the stage before the short statement.

Squad7 Jun 2027

Christian Ortiz 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 Juan Aurich this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match5 Jun 2027

A bad afternoon for Juan Aurich against Alianza Lima

0‑1 to Alianza Lima, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad7 Jun 2027

Words at Juan Aurich training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ramón Rengifo 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.

Squad7 Jun 2027

Ramón Rengifo 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.

Player ratings7 Jun 2027

Nobody could get near Christian Vargas

Successful dribbles: 16. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad7 Jun 2027

Ian Wisdom named in the team of the month

A month is long enough that nobody gets in by accident. Ian Wisdom is in the division's best eleven for it, which is a quieter compliment than an award and a more reliable one.

The terraces7 Jun 2027

The spotlight tightens on Joao Villamarín

Every touch is being weighed now, in print and everywhere else. Some players grow into that and some are quietly ruined by it, and nobody knows which in advance.

Squad18 Jan 2027

Ramón Rengifo damages knee ligaments — 106 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 106 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.

Tempers go at Juan Aurich

Christian Ortiz 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.

Squad18 Jan 2027

No hiding place for Erick Coavoy

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Erick Coavoy, and the manager let it.

The Leon Sentinel

14 Sep 2026
From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad14 Sep 2026

Iván Rodríguez breaks a bone — 72 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 72 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Casemiro, 34, rolls back the years — 7.84

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 7.84 at 34, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

A defender's afternoon for Rodrigo Echeverría

Defensive actions: 26. He was first to everything and second to nothing, and the goalkeeper had an easy day because of it.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Jordi Cortizo 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.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Nothing got past Fernando Beltrán

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 24 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Words at Leon training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Casemiro 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.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Emi Rodriguez signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Emi Rodriguez and Leon agree another 4 years.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Tempers go at Leon

Fernando Beltrán 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.

Match12 Sep 2026

Leon get the job done against Tijuana

A 2‑0 win over Tijuana, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.
