Match

La Equidad tear Llaneros apart

Rarely has this fixture seen a display like it: 3‑0 against Llaneros, and it could have been more.

The dugout

Noah Bruno says La Equidad went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Market

Nicolas Torres hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what La Equidad can pretend not to have heard.

Player ratings

James Castillo has a hand in both — 7.95

One scored and one made, which is a different afternoon from scoring twice and an easier one to overlook. Marked 7.95, and involved in 2 of his side's goals.

Squad

Gustavo Duque 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 terraces

The crowd has taken to Nicolas Rangel

At 21 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.

Player ratings

Hugo Diaz in the eights

A performance of 8.06 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Duvan Mina

Marked 8.04 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Squad

Words exchanged at La Equidad

Edmilson Herazo and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad

Víctor Cabezas stands alone

8 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

The dugout

Noah Bruno keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” La Equidad may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad

A row about effort at La Equidad

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Gustavo Duque was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Match

The goals have deserted La Equidad

3 matches, no goals, and a training ground that has tried everything. It will end — droughts always do — but nobody at La Equidad can tell you which week it ends in.

Squad

Nicolas Rangel 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 La Equidad this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Lautaro de León signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Lautaro de León commits to La Equidad for another 4 years.

The dugout

Sergio Diaz has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at La Equidad will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

The dugout

The manager’s verdict

“I am frustrated, honestly. We did enough to win and we did not win.” Jose Mejia was not hiding it after 0‑0, and nobody in the La Equidad dressing room was either.

Player ratings

Duvan Mina runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 13. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.
