There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Hector Valencia provided it, and the 8.50 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Words at Independiente training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Maximiliano Meza 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.
The injury that keeps coming back, keeps being rushed back from, and quietly costs more careers than the dramatic ones. 14 days is the estimate; the honest figure depends on whether anybody is patient.
“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Independiente, and 0 appearances in 27 say he has earned the hearing.
12 without defeat on their own grass. The pitch has not changed; the crowd has — louder earlier, and quicker to sense when the opposition would rather be somewhere else.
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.
Boca Juniors will keep picking him until June and will get nothing for him after it. Nicolás Figal has pre-agreed a move to Independiente, and the only people who lose in that arrangement are the ones who let the contract run down.
“I watch every Independiente game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Columbus Crew runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.
Santiago Vera 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.

A month is long enough that nobody gets in by accident. Lautaro Millán is in the division's best eleven for it, which is a quieter compliment than an award and a more reliable one.
“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Independiente, and both men came out saying it was fine.
5 goals in 16 games at Newell's Old Boys — numbers that travel home faster than he does. Somebody at Independiente updates a spreadsheet every Monday, and it makes better reading each week.
He is going to Independiente, the club has $4.6M it did not have on Friday, and the phone-ins have already decided how they feel about that. Selling well and selling somebody they loved are not the same skill.

Javier Mejia 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 one version of being left out a player cannot argue with, and the one he takes worst. Somebody else has been better and the team sheet says so, in public, every week until it changes.
This is not cover and nobody is pretending it is. $4.6M has been paid because Hector Valencia is straightforwardly better than what was already here, and the club has decided to stop waiting.
“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Independiente have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.
Rodrigo Rey 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.

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Cortulua can pretend not to have heard.
Some transfers need a press campaign. This one needed a shirt with the old number on it. Jeison Angulo is a Cortulua player again, and the town has its story of the summer.
Everything was agreed until it was not, and Jesus Santos reports back to Cortulua with a summer to forget. Neither club is saying who walked away from the table.

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Richard Moreno. 1‑0 against La Equidad, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.
