Marked for Daniel Soteldo

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad8 May 2028

Alejandro Rincon breaks a bone — 90 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 90 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Match6 May 2028

Llaneros turn it around against Carabobo

Going 2 down does something to a side, and what it usually does is finish them. Not here. Llaneros rebuilt the afternoon goal by goal, and Carabobo had no answer to any of it.

Both of them Juan Méndez's — 9.00

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 9.00, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Squad8 May 2028

A one-man rearguard from Yeferson Cordova

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Match6 May 2028

Nobody wants to play Llaneros right now

3 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.

Squad8 May 2028

Alejandro Rincon 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 Llaneros this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad8 May 2028

At 21, Juan Méndez is already the best thing here

An average of 7.00 in a first team he is several years too young for. Llaneros have something, and by now the whole division has noticed.

Match6 May 2028

Juan Méndez sends Llaneros past Carabobo

It finished 3‑2, and it was Juan Méndez’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Llaneros.

Player ratings8 May 2028

A masterclass from Sebastián González

Marked 8.10 — 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.

From our football correspondent Steady

Squad1 May 2028

Alejandro Rincon breaks a bone — 97 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 97 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Match29 Apr 2028

Llaneros run riot against Portuguesa

4‑1, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Player ratings1 May 2028

No sign of nerves from Juan Méndez at 21 — 8.18

The hardest thing about being 21 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Juan Méndez did not need any: 8.18, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Squad1 May 2028

Tiago is the real thing at 20

A season average of 7.12 at an age when most of his year group are still in the youth team. Llaneros know what they have, and so, by now, does everybody else.

Squad1 May 2028

Tempers go at Llaneros

Alejandro Rincon was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

The terraces1 May 2028

The crowd has taken to Juan Méndez

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.

Squad1 May 2028

Words at Llaneros training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Sebastián González is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Market1 May 2028

The Alejandro Rincon story refuses to die

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

Player ratings1 May 2028

Nobody could get near Sebastián González

Successful dribbles: 11. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.
