Squad

36 days out for Hugo Restrepo after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Cortulua will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Squad

Sergio Uribe 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.

Squad

Victor Quintero 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 dugout

When it matters, Andres Sinisterra plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Market

The Andres Sinisterra story refuses to die

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

Market

The shop window has Freddy Arias in it

Cortulua have let the market know Freddy Arias can be had. No price in the advert, but everyone in the trade knows roughly what it says.

Match

Cortulua let it slip despite Freddy Arias

Freddy Arias had done his part in building a 2-goal cushion. What happened after that was collective, and Santa Fe were allowed back into a match that had been finished with.

Player ratings

Both of them Freddy Arias's — 9.15

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 9.15, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Squad

Freddy Arias is in the form of his life

A season average of 7.20 with 10 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

Match

Honours even between Cortulua and Santa Fe

2‑2, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

The dugout

Freddy Arias gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Freddy Arias is on it.

The dugout

The manager’s verdict

“I am frustrated, honestly. We did enough to win and we did not win.” Edwin Arias was not hiding it after 2‑2, and nobody in the Cortulua dressing room was either.

Player ratings

The afternoon ran through Duvan Castillo

Chances created: 10. Nothing on the scoresheet and everything in the match: the pass before the pass, over and over, until the defence stopped guessing right.
