Still nobody has beaten Nueva Chicago
The unbeaten run reaches 9. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

A falling-out at Nueva Chicago
Bruno Palazzo and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Luciano Jachfe 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.

Bruno Palazzo 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.

Noah Silva steps up from the Nueva Chicago academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Noah Silva 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.

After 4 games, Nueva Chicago finally taste it again
The first defeat in 4 matches. The manager will say it had to come; the dressing room will say it did not have to come against Lanús; the supporters will say both, in that order, all week.

The afternoon belonged to Gabriel Vega
A mark of 7.90, and nobody in the ground would argue with it. He was involved in everything that mattered and most of what did not.

Wages swallow 87% of the Nueva Chicago income
Every club pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time it has been tried.
In brief
- Match Nueva Chicago share the spoils with Lanús
- Market Still no ink between Nueva Chicago and Evelio Cardozo
- The dugout Somebody else is better right now than Emiliano Méndez
