The Cortulua Post

From our football correspondent Steady

Market

Cortulua turn down Tenerife for Freddy Rodriguez

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad

6 saves: Fabian Montero was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 6 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Market

Newcastle United expected to open talks for Diego Montero

Both sides expect a conversation in the coming days. Cortulua will name a price, and everything after that is arithmetic.

Squad

Gabriel Herrera 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.

Market

Varzim watching Jose Hurtado

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Cortulua have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Match

Deportes Tolima take the points off Cortulua

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

The dugout

The view from the dugout

“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 0‑1 defeat, delivered by Gabriel Quintero to a room that had heard them before.

Squad

Edwin Sinisterra signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Edwin Sinisterra commits to Cortulua for another 3 years.

Squad

The division's best last weekend was a Cortulua man

It is a small honour and it is not nothing: somebody watched every match in the division and decided that Jose Hurtado was the best thing in any of them.

In brief
