Squad

Cienciano lose Neri Bandiera

167 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Squad

Tempers go at Cienciano

Alejandro Hohberg 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.

Squad

Cienciano count the cost of losing Andre Polo

14 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

Claudio Núñez 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 Cienciano this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Cienciano lose Sebastián Cavero

14 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Player ratings

One of those days for Claudio Núñez

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.48, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Player ratings

Neri Bandiera in the eights

A performance of 8.15 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Squad

No hiding place for Jefferson Gutiérrez

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

Loan watch

Nadhir Colunga has seen enough of Alianza Atletico

“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 Cienciano, and 0 appearances in 5 say he has earned the hearing.

Player ratings

Gonzalo Aguirre turns it into his own net

Nobody's fault and entirely his: a goal that goes into the book with his name against it and nothing about it intended. Cienciano deserved better, and so did he.

Market

A long bet from Cienciano on Andre Aquino

He is 17, and nobody at Cienciano signed him for this season. Deals like this are judged in four years, by people who may not still be in the building.

Market

Cienciano buy the years ahead of Andre Polo

He is 16, and the scouting reports agree on the only line that matters: the ceiling. Signings like this are lottery tickets written by professionals.
