The Sergipe Gazette
Match15 Apr 2028
Tombense punish Sergipe for switching off
2 goals to the good, and then a slow surrender of everything that had been earned. Dudu will not be the one blamed for it, but nobody at Sergipe escapes the conversation that follows a collapse like this.
Player ratings17 Apr 2028
Both of them Dudu's — 8.25
2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.25, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Guilherme Gama keeps the receipts
“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Sergipe may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.
Boardroom17 Apr 2028
Fábio Ribeiro signs on for the long haul
Sergipe moved before anybody else could: a new deal for Fábio Ribeiro, agreed quietly and announced loudly. Boards extend managers for many reasons; the good one is the one this looks like.

Words exchanged at Sergipe
Murilo Prates and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.
Boardroom17 Apr 2028
5 academy graduates step up at Sergipe
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.

A row about effort at Sergipe
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Laércio was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.
The terraces17 Apr 2028
One of their own: Dudu
He is 19 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

One of our own: José Neves joins the Sergipe first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. José Neves is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.
