Match9 Apr 2033

At last: Aragua win one

19 matches without a win, and then this, against Mineros de Guayana. Relief is a strange noise in a football ground and it was the only noise at the end.

Squad11 Apr 2033

A day José Sequera 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.

Player ratings11 Apr 2033

A masterclass from José Sequera

Marked 10.00 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Match9 Apr 2033

Aragua get the job done against Mineros de Guayana

A 3‑2 win over Mineros de Guayana, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

The dugout11 Apr 2033

A satisfied Interim Coach

“The players deserve the credit. My job was easy today.” It was not, and everybody in the room knew it; after 3‑2, Interim Coach could afford to be generous.

The dugout11 Apr 2033

Darwin Casseres gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad11 Apr 2033

The division's best last weekend was a Aragua man

It is a small honour and it is not nothing: somebody watched every match in the division and decided that José Sequera was the best thing in any of them.

The dugout11 Apr 2033

David Cordova dropped after a run of poor form

The one version of being left out a player cannot argue with, and the one he takes worst. Somebody else has been better and the team sheet says so, in public, every week until it changes.

The dugout11 Apr 2033

Miguel Jiménez 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 Miguel Jiménez is on it.

Squad28 Mar 2033

A falling-out at Aragua

Ulises Echevarría and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad28 Mar 2033

Words at Aragua training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Luiyi Rincón is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad28 Mar 2033

Roberto Ramirez signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Roberto Ramirez and Aragua agree another 3 years.

Looking ahead28 Mar 2033

Juan David Cuesta goes back to face Carabobo

Every squad has one of these fixtures for somebody every season. This one is Juan David Cuesta’s: the club that knew him first, the supporters who will decide in the first minute whether to applaud, and Aragua needing him to play as if none of it matters.

Squad28 Mar 2033

“I want to play”: Richard Ferraresi 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.

The dugout28 Mar 2033

Richard Ferraresi knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Aragua, and both men came out saying it was fine.
