A European lesson for Lanús
0‑1 against Defensa y Justicia. Continental football is unforgiving about the things a domestic league lets a side get away with, and this was a night spent finding out which of those the club still has.

The ground has had enough
“We travel everywhere and we get this.” 11 of the 35 senior players heard it walking off, and the ones who did not hear it were not playing.

FC Cincinnati come back empty-handed
The bid was some way short and Lanús did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Tempers go at Lanús
Ramiro Carrera 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.

Ramiro Carrera runs at them all day
Successful dribbles: 20. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Unión de Santa Fe take the points off Lanús
Beaten 1‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Marcelino Moreno 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.
In brief
