Daniel Roca damages knee ligaments — 73 days out
The words a physio says slowly. 73 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

A falling-out at Trujillanos
Leomar Mosquera and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Salomon Casseres steps up from the Trujillanos academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Salomon Casseres 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.

A place in the month's best eleven for Leomar Mosquera
Four or five weekends of consistency, judged against everybody in the division doing his job. Leomar Mosquera has come out of that comparison in the side, and Trujillanos have had the benefit of every one of those afternoons.
