Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Estudiantes de Caracas will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

24 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Estudiantes de Caracas lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

In brief
Player ratingsNinety minutes of Diego Murillo at his very best
6 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Salomon Arango has his answer from Estudiantes de Caracas; what he does with it is the next window’s story.
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Andres Murillo 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.
