Match

Still nobody has beaten Lanús

The unbeaten run reaches 17. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

The dugout

Ramiro Carrera: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Lanús have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market

Rodrigo Huescas wants more than Lanús are offering

“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.

Squad

Tempers go at Lanús

Franco Petroli 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

Eduardo Salvio signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Eduardo Salvio and Lanús agree another 2 years.

Player ratings

Rodrigo Huescas beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 21. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Match

The run at home goes on for Lanús

9 matches unbeaten here. Every visiting manager is asked about it in the week before, which is precisely why it keeps going.

Market

Toro steps up from the Lanús academy

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

Lanús promote Luis Vega from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Luis Vega has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

In brief
