Facundo Milán scores twice — 9.06
Two goals and a mark of 9.06 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Tempers go at Atenas
Facundo Briñón 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.

Atenas get the job done against Tacuarembo
A 3‑2 win over Tacuarembo, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Atenas supporters have found a favourite in Lucas Bassadone
There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Lucas Bassadone has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

One of our own: Alejandro Cardozo joins the Atenas first team

One of those days for Agustín Navarro
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.
