Match12 Sep 2026

Still nobody has beaten Cortulua

The unbeaten run reaches 7. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Cristian Cordoba 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.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

The game went through Cristian Cordoba — 7.19

Marked 7.19 on 14 actions at both ends of the pitch. Midfielders like this get described as unspectacular by people who have never tried to play against one.

The dugout14 Sep 2026

The manager makes an example of Manuel Romero

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

A promise honoured at Cortulua

Something was said to Alfredo Gomez and then it happened. In this industry that passes for remarkable, and the dressing room noticed faster than any supporter could.

Half-satisfied: Diego Rangel on the draw

“There are things I liked and things we will be doing on Tuesday until they are right.” 0‑0, and a manager who had already decided what Tuesday looked like.

Somebody else is better right now than Javier Torres

The team sheet says it in public every week until it changes. The only version of being dropped a footballer cannot argue with, and the one he takes hardest.

Manuel Romero wants out of the dugout

“I did not sign to watch. Nobody does.” The oldest complaint in the game, and Cortulua will have to answer it with minutes or with a move.

Gabriel Lopez leaves them behind him

Shots: 9. Goals: none. The chances were there and they were good ones, and they went into the stand, the goalkeeper's arms and the side netting in roughly that order.

So close: Gabriel Lopez’s move dies late

The fee was agreed and the flight was looked at — and then the phone stopped ringing. Santa Clara moved on, Gabriel Lopez reports back to Cortulua, and everybody pretends Monday is just Monday.

Squad7 Sep 2026

A falling-out at Cortulua

Sergio Santos and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

A place in the month's best eleven for Ivan Gonzalez

Four or five weekends of consistency, judged against everybody in the division doing his job. Ivan Gonzalez has come out of that comparison in the side, and Cortulua have had the benefit of every one of those afternoons.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Cortulua have started building around Cristian Cordoba

He used to be one of the options. He is now one of the men the options are picked around, and the change happened quietly enough that only the dressing room noticed on the day.

The Sergio Santos story refuses to die

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Sergio Santos signs something — a contract at Cortulua or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

Daniel Medina 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 Daniel Medina has written the date down.
