Match

Operário Ferroviário tear Amazonas apart

Rarely has this fixture seen a display like it: 5‑0 against Amazonas, and it could have been more.

Player ratings

A brace, and Aylon takes the afternoon — 9.09

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Aylon provided it, and the 9.09 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Player ratings

Both of them Vinícius Mingotti's — 8.34

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.34, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Player ratings

Up for the corner, and Miranda delivers — 7.77

Centre-halves are allowed forward twice a season and are judged on what they do when they get there. Miranda scored, was marked 7.77, and got back before anybody noticed he had gone.

Squad

Words exchanged at Operário Ferroviário

Juan Pablo Zuluaga 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.

Market

Operário Ferroviário may not be able to give Vinícius Mingotti what he wants

It is the most legitimate ambition in the sport and the hardest for most clubs to satisfy. Vinícius Mingotti wants continental football; whether Operário Ferroviário can provide it is a question about the next two seasons, not about him.

Match

Vinícius Mingotti’s goal not enough for Operário Ferroviário

Vinícius Mingotti scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑2 to Remo, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

The dugout

No hiding place for Elias

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

Market

Vinícius Nardo steps up from the Operário Ferroviário academy

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