Nobody could get near Lautaro Disanto

Successful dribbles: 21. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad11 Jun 2029

Luis Olivera 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.

Squad11 Jun 2029

Stefan Herrera gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match9 Jun 2029

Defensores Unidos get the job done against Chaco For Ever

A 1‑0 win over Chaco For Ever, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Squad11 Jun 2029

Tempers go at Defensores Unidos

Facundo Figueroa 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.

Stefan Herrera was the difference for Defensores Unidos

Marked 7.47. Ask anyone leaving the ground what settled it and you will get one name, which is the only award that has ever really counted.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad7 Feb 2028

Francisco Di Franco breaks a bone — 28 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 28 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad7 Feb 2028

Alan Sosa damages knee ligaments — 18 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 18 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 ratings7 Feb 2028

Alan Sombra, 33, rolls back the years — 8.08

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 8.08 at 33, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Tempers go at Defensores Unidos

Lautaro Disanto 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.

Boardroom7 Feb 2028

Graduation day at Defensores Unidos

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.

Market7 Feb 2028

Defensores Unidos promote Martín González from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Martín González 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.

Noah Romano steps up from the Defensores Unidos academy
