Eric Ramírez wants European nights
The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.

Carabobo to lose Fernando García for free
There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Fernando García has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.

Real improvement from José Durán at Carabobo
Form comes and goes; this has not gone. José Durán is 22, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Leonardo Aponte 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 Carabobo this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Jonathan Bilbao 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.

When it matters, Juan Camilo Pérez plays
It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

The manager has not finished forgetting Nicolás Caprio's mistake
Publicly it is behind everybody. It is not behind the man who picks the team, and the only place that shows is a team sheet. He will get another chance; he will get it in a match that matters less.

The Lucas Bruera talk will not go away
Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Carabobo know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Carlos Sosa has been promised minutes
A conversation in the manager’s office, and a commitment that came out of it. Promises like that are cheap to make and expensive to break, and Carlos Sosa has written the date down.
In brief
- The dugout Juan Camilo Pérez keeps his manager's vote
- Squad Ezequiel Neira is out on the grass again
