Squad16 Nov 2026

Tempers go at Independiente Rivadavia

Iván Villalba 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.

Squad16 Nov 2026

Maximiliano Salas 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.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

No hiding place for Luis Ángel Díaz

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

Squad16 Nov 2026

Independiente Rivadavia count the cost of losing Daniel Ortiz

21 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Squad16 Nov 2026

“I want to play”: Luis Ángel Díaz speaks

“I respect the manager and I am not going to sit here and pretend I am happy.” It is the most common sentence in football and it has never once been the end of a story.

Leonel Bucca gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Leonel Bucca is on it.

Squad19 Oct 2026

The knee: Axel Leiva out for 33 days

33 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Independiente Rivadavia lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Match17 Oct 2026

The wait goes on for Independiente Rivadavia

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.

Squad19 Oct 2026

Tempers go at Independiente Rivadavia

Iván Villalba 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.

Squad19 Oct 2026

A row about effort at Independiente Rivadavia

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Maximiliano Salas was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Match17 Oct 2026

Independiente Rivadavia come up short against Barracas Central

Barracas Central left with the points after a 1‑3 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Match17 Oct 2026

Independiente Rivadavia are shipping goals every week

Two or more conceded in each of the last 4 matches. It is not one mistake repeating itself, which would be the easier thing to fix; it is a different one every week.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

No hiding place for Álex Arce

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

Squad19 Oct 2026

Independiente Rivadavia lose Daniel Ortiz

55 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

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 1‑3 defeat, delivered by Pablo Ramos to a room that had heard them before.

Market10 Aug 2026

José Florentín moves on

Urawa Reds pay $3.1M, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Álex Arce signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Álex Arce and Independiente Rivadavia agree another 4 years.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Independiente Rivadavia

Iván Villalba and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Market10 Aug 2026

Liam Ferreyra steps up from the Independiente Rivadavia academy

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

One of our own: Daniel Ortiz joins the Independiente Rivadavia first team

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

Market10 Aug 2026

Independiente Rivadavia promote Roberto Bruno from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Roberto Bruno 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.

Player ratings10 Aug 2026

Juan Manuel Elordi was the difference for Independiente Rivadavia

Marked 7.05. Ask anyone leaving the ground what settled it and you will get one name, which is the only award that has ever really counted.

The dugout10 Aug 2026

Álex Arce knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Álex Arce trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

The dugout10 Aug 2026

The view from the dugout

“We did not lose. Some weeks that is all you get, and I would rather have the point than not.” Pablo Ramos chose the glass-half-full version of 0‑0; the supporters left with the other one.
