Match

Los Andes out of the cup

Atlanta ended it 0‑1. The season narrows to the league now, and everyone in the ground knew it before the final whistle.

Market

Rayo Vallecano watching Mario Galeano

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Los Andes have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Match

4 matches without a win for Los Andes

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Los Andes are no longer polite ones.

Squad

Brian Leizza 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 Los Andes this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

Colegiales take the points off Los Andes

Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

The dugout

No hiding place for Sebastián López

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Sebastián López, and the manager let it.

Market

Pity steps up from the Los Andes academy

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

Los Andes promote Sebastián Ponce from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Sebastián Ponce 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.

Market

Los Andes promote Alejandro Ortiz from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Alejandro Ortiz 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.
