The Andorra Chronicle
Match26 Oct 2027
Andorra taken apart
1‑5 to Málaga, and it was every bit as bad as the number suggests. There are defeats you argue about and defeats you apologise for; this was the second kind.
Match30 Oct 2027
Andorra taken apart
0‑4 to Las Palmas, and it was every bit as bad as the number suggests. There are defeats you argue about and defeats you apologise for; this was the second kind.

Marc Cardona keeps the receipts
“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Andorra may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Georges puts it in writing
“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Andorra, and it is not being withdrawn.
Match30 Oct 2027
The wait goes on for Andorra
5 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.

A falling-out at Andorra
Thomas Carrique and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.
Match26 Oct 2027
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 Andorra and Málaga in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.
Squad1 Nov 2027
Álex Calvo 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.
Squad1 Nov 2027
A muscle injury and 14 days out for Jon Vidal
The most common injury in the game and the most rushed back from. Andorra will quote 14 days and will be careful with it, because the second one is always worse than the first.
