Match

The wait goes on for Dorados

15 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Squad

Jorge Hernández damages knee ligaments — 44 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 44 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.

Squad

Javier Romo breaks a bone — 36 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 36 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market

Leonel Miranda asks to leave Dorados

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

The dugout

Ciro Thompson says Dorados went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

The dugout

Dylan Guajardo frozen out at Dorados

This is not rotation. Dylan Guajardo has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Dorados is pretending otherwise.

Boardroom

5 academy graduates step up at Dorados

Senior shirt numbers handed to boys the coaches have known since they were twelve. Most will not make it and all of them have already done the hard part.

Match

Dorados cannot find the net

3 games without scoring. Strikers stop looking up, midfielders take the extra touch, and every shot that clears the bar is followed by a groan that has been building since the last goal.

Transfer targets

Dorados rebuffed over Patricio Salas

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Atlas have kept their man, and Dorados go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

In brief
