Squad

Tempers go at Joinville

Deuner was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match

Cascavel take the points off Joinville

Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Market

One of our own: Marcelo Xavier joins the Joinville first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Marcelo Xavier is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Player ratings

Kennedy beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 18. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

The dugout

Samuel Tavares faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Samuel Tavares after 0‑2, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

The dugout

Serginho is still being punished for one mistake

Nobody will confirm it and the team sheets confirm it every week. One error has bought him a spell as second choice that is already longer than the error deserved.

Player ratings

Serginho could not find anything

4.47. Every footballer has these and most of them happen away from a full ground; his did not, and he will be aware of that all week.

The dugout

When it matters, Kennedy plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

In brief
