The Cortulua Post
Match1 Aug 2026
Cortulua run riot against Deportivo Pasto
3‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Cortulua turn down PSV for Pedro Souza
The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.
Player ratings3 Aug 2026
Both of them Pedro Souza's — 8.67
2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.67, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

What a way to start for Ivan Quintero — 7.46
0 on the scoresheet on his first appearance and a mark of 7.46 beside it. Most debuts are got through; this one was enjoyed, by him and by everybody watching it.

Camilo Montero 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.

Javier Vargas 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 Cortulua this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Camilo Montero 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.

The crowd has taken to Ivan Quintero
At 17 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.
