Tempers go at Valledupar

Alejandro Quintero 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.

Daniel Bacca pulls a muscle — 15 days out

The injury that keeps coming back, keeps being rushed back from, and quietly costs more careers than the dramatic ones. 15 days is the estimate; the honest figure depends on whether anybody is patient.

Andres Rios has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Valledupar 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.

Hugo Cardona damages knee ligaments — 35 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 35 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Valledupar march on in the cup

Atletico Nacional are out and Valledupar go through, 1‑0 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Alejandro Quintero 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 Valledupar this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Words at Valledupar training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Andres Rios 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 manager makes an example of Richard Murillo

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Jesus Zapata was immovable

15 times he got in the way of something. Centre-halves get written about when they make mistakes and ignored when they do not, so an afternoon like this needs saying out loud: he is the reason the scoreline reads as it does.

Daniel Bacca placed on the list

Valledupar have made Daniel Bacca available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.
