The Ituano Sentinel
Match4 Aug 2026
Neto Berola leads the rout of Itabaiana
5‑1, and Neto Berola took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Ituano tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.
Match8 Aug 2026
No mercy from Ituano
Figueirense will want this one forgotten quickly: 3‑0, every duel lost, and a long ride home. Ituano were ruthless in the way good sides are ruthless.

Zé Carlos scores twice — 8.90
Two goals and a mark of 8.90 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.
Squad10 Aug 2026
A day Neto Berola will not forget
3 goals in one game. The first was taken well, the second was taken greedily, and by the third the crowd were simply waiting for him to get the ball.

Vintage Osman — 8.30
At 33 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 8.30, and nobody on the pitch better.
Match8 Aug 2026
Ituano make it 3 in a row
Momentum is a hard thing to buy and an easy thing to lose, and right now Ituano have 3 straight wins of it.

A falling-out at Ituano
Neto Berola and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.
Match4 Aug 2026
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 Ituano and Itabaiana in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.
The terraces10 Aug 2026
One of their own: Zé Carlos
He is 22 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.
