Squad12 Oct 2026

Henrique Rodrigues breaks a bone — 116 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 116 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Real improvement from Falcão at Central

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Falcão is 18, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Words exchanged at Central

Danilo Ribeiro 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.

Market12 Oct 2026

The João Pereira question follows Central around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with João Pereira’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

Market12 Oct 2026

Central put Yi Teng up for sale

The list is a quiet document with a loud meaning. Yi Teng may talk to anybody who asks, and everybody at the club understands what that means.

The dugout12 Oct 2026

Mateus Fonseca asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Eduardo Bezerra breaks a bone — 31 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 31 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Carlos Batista 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 Central this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The dugout7 Sep 2026

No hiding place for Carlos Batista

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Carlos Batista, and the manager let it.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Júnior Nogueira 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.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Rodrygo Pacheco slips down the pecking order

The demotion a club never announces and a dressing room always notices. Rodrygo Pacheco is further from the side than he was, and the reason will not be given until he asks.

Market7 Sep 2026

Yi Teng brings the grey hairs Central lacked

At 36, he has seen every situation this season can produce, twice. The legs will be managed; the head is the purchase.

Market7 Sep 2026

The Valentino Lucero question follows Central around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Valentino Lucero’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

The terraces7 Sep 2026

Supporters make their feelings known about João Pereira

The speculation has reached the stands, and the stands have answered. Central would like this settled before it becomes the only thing anybody asks about.

Market7 Sep 2026

The shop window has Henrique Teixeira in it

Central have let the market know Henrique Teixeira can be had. No price in the advert, but everyone in the trade knows roughly what it says.

Squad24 Aug 2026

4 goals for Carlos Batista

The match ball belongs to Carlos Batista, whose 4 goals turned a difficult afternoon into a procession.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Eduardo Bezerra breaks a bone — 45 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 45 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market24 Aug 2026

Shamakhi come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Central did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Match22 Aug 2026

6 goals as Central and Treze go for it

Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 6 goals between Central and Treze, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

Match22 Aug 2026

Central see off Treze

Three points for Central, 4‑2 the final word against Treze in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Carlos Batista in the eights

A performance of 9.68 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

The terraces24 Aug 2026

One of their own: Tiago Oliveira

He is 19 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

The dugout24 Aug 2026

Caio Borges gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Ninety minutes of Valentino Lucero at his very best

Marked 8.03. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Central.
