Squad

The knee: Luca Raffin out for 102 days

102 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Central Córdoba SdE lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Player ratings

Jorge De Asis scores twice — 8.87

Two goals and a mark of 8.87 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Match

No end in sight to Central Córdoba SdE's wait for a win

6 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Central Córdoba SdE has to find a result from somewhere.

Market

Júnior Fariña asks to leave Central Córdoba SdE

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

Santiago Moyano 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 Central Córdoba SdE this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

Santiago Ascacíbar told to find a new club

“They were honest with me, and I would rather know.” Santiago Ascacíbar has been informed he is not in the manager's thinking at Central Córdoba SdE.

Squad

Words at Central Córdoba SdE training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Luciano Posadas 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.

Match

Late, late show earns Central Córdoba SdE a point

Minute 95, against Godoy Cruz, and a goal that felt like a win to everybody who had stayed. It was a draw. Nobody leaving the ground will describe it as one.

Match

Honours even between Central Córdoba SdE and Godoy Cruz

3‑3, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

Squad

Luca Raffin damages knee ligaments — 130 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 130 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Player ratings

Both of them Lucas Varaldo's — 8.53

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.53, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Market

Júnior Fariña hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Central Córdoba SdE can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Santiago Moyano 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 Central Córdoba SdE this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

Nobody could stop scoring

6 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about Central Córdoba SdE and Gimnasia La Plata in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.

Match

Lucas Varaldo’s goal not enough for Central Córdoba SdE

Lucas Varaldo scored, and precious little else went right: 2‑4 to Gimnasia La Plata, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Squad

Alejandro Domínguez out for 44 days

The medical room confirms 44 days on the sidelines for Alejandro Domínguez, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Squad

Words at Central Córdoba SdE training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Axel Pinto 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.

The dugout

The view from the dugout

“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 2‑4 defeat, delivered by Interim Coach to a room that had heard them before.

In brief
