Nestor Arteaga runs at them all day
Successful dribbles: 35. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.
Match28 Oct 2026
Veracruz through in the cup
A 1‑0 win over Club America, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Marco Arteaga puts it in writing
“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Veracruz, and it is not being withdrawn.

Veracruz win it in stoppage time
The board had gone up, the arguing had started, and then the ball was in the net in the 100th minute. Club America will replay every second of the added time for a week.

Efrain Herrera: that is not what I was promised
“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Veracruz have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Guillermo Arteaga wants to know where this is going
“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at Veracruz hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

A bad afternoon for Veracruz against Morelia
0‑2 to Morelia, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Roberto 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.
In brief
- Squad The manager makes an example of Jorge Alberto Sánchez
