Matías Soto breaks a bone — 117 days out
Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 117 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Roberto Hernández: that is not what I was promised
“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Cerrito have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Francisco Casanova stands alone
6 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Franco Casuriaga’s goal not enough for Cerrito
Franco Casuriaga scored, and precious little else went right: 2‑3 to Fenix, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Words at Cerrito training over how hard people work
