Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Darío Rodríguez

22 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. La Equidad lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Match

The wait goes on for La Equidad

8 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Squad

Martín Rea 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 La Equidad this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Boardroom

6 academy players handed senior numbers at La Equidad

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Squad

Juan Pablo Gallego 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.

Squad

No hiding place for Ayron del Valle

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

Market

One of our own: Wilmar Romero joins the La Equidad first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Wilmar Romero is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

La Equidad promote Fabian Borja from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Fabian Borja 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.

Leonardo Borja steps up from the La Equidad academy

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

In brief
