7 saves: Matías Mansilla was the team
Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 7 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Unión de Santa Fe to lose Benjamín Pérez for free
There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Benjamín Pérez 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.

Words exchanged at Unión de Santa Fe
Tomás Galván 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.

A row about effort at Unión de Santa Fe
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Mauro Pittón was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.
Match21 Aug 2027
Deportivo Riestra take the points off Unión de Santa Fe
Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Joaquín Mosqueira 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.

Nobody left the Unión de Santa Fe dressing room in a hurry
The door stayed shut a long time after the final whistle. What was said in there is between them; whether it worked is between them and Saturday.
The dugout23 Aug 2027
Juan Martín Medina answers for it
“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 0‑1, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.

Franco Fragapane beats them one at a time
Successful dribbles: 13. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.
In brief
- The dugout Unión de Santa Fe pick somebody else ahead of Gonzalo Trindade
- The dugout Brahian Cuello has become a man the manager trusts
- Looking ahead Cristian Tarragona goes back to face Talleres
