The Ferro Carril Oeste Sentinel

A knee injury of the worst kind for Gustavo Canto
50 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Ferro Carril Oeste lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

A fracture rules Misael Tarón out for 100 days
Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Ferro Carril Oeste will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Nicolás Retamar says Ferro Carril Oeste went back on their word
“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Tempers go at Ferro Carril Oeste
Fernando Monetti 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.

The crowd has taken to Nicolás Montiel
At 22 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Ferro Carril Oeste find a way past Colegiales
Colegiales made Ferro Carril Oeste work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Nobody could get near Martín Campos
Successful dribbles: 18. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.
