Market

Edmilson Herazo puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Barranquilla, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Sebastián Guerra stands alone

6 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Market

Jhoynner Lozano has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Barranquilla they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Boardroom

5 academy graduates step up at Barranquilla

Senior shirt numbers handed to boys the coaches have known since they were twelve. Most will not make it and all of them have already done the hard part.

Squad

Words exchanged at Barranquilla

Yesid García and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Market

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Ivan Montero is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market

Oscar Herrera steps up from the Barranquilla academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Oscar Herrera 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.

Match

Barranquilla come up short against Tigres

Tigres left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Player ratings

Diego Mendoza runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 18. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

In brief
