Squad

Tempers go at Argentinos Juniors

Alan Lescano 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

Joaquín Gho 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.

Match

Argentinos Juniors find a way past River Plate

River Plate made Argentinos Juniors work for it, but the scoreboard read 1‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Squad

No hiding place for Federico Mancuello

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

Squad

Argentinos Juniors count the cost of losing Benjamín Cabrera

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

Player ratings

Alan Lescano takes the honours

Marked 7.98 on an afternoon he ran from the first whistle to the last. Whatever else went wrong, Argentinos Juniors had the best player on the pitch.

Loan watch

Facundo Jainikoski counts the days

“I watch every Argentinos Juniors game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Al Ahli runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

Loan watch

9 goals on loan for Joaquín Ardaiz

31 appearances at Defensores and the goals keep coming. Argentinos Juniors are watching this more closely than the borrowing club would like.

Loan watch

5 goals on loan for Lautaro Giaccone

27 appearances at Columbus Crew and the goals keep coming. Argentinos Juniors are watching this more closely than the borrowing club would like.

Squad

Claudio Bravo breaks a bone — 64 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 64 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad

Erik Godoy 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 Argentinos Juniors this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Boardroom

Graduation day at Argentinos Juniors

5 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Squad

Words at Argentinos Juniors training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Hernán López Muñoz 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.

Market

Carlos Alberto Ruiz steps up from the Argentinos Juniors academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Carlos Alberto Ruiz has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Market

Pedro Muñoz steps up from the Argentinos Juniors academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Pedro Muñoz has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
