Brasil de Pelotas tear Azuriz apart
Rarely has this fixture seen a display like it: 4‑1 against Azuriz, and it could have been more.

Wesley Barbosa puts it in writing
“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Brasil de Pelotas, and it is not being withdrawn.

Brasil de Pelotas are 2 in the table and the town has noticed
44 points, a place near the top and a ground that has begun to enjoy itself. Nobody will say the word out loud, which is the surest indication that everybody is thinking it.

Brasil de Pelotas make home a hard place to visit
10 without defeat on their own grass. The pitch has not changed; the crowd has — louder earlier, and quicker to sense when the opposition would rather be somewhere else.

Renato Rocha is in the form of his life
A season average of 7.25 with 13 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

Douglas Cunha 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.

One of their own: Lucas Giménez
He is 22 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.
In brief
- The dugout Douglas Cunha gets it from the manager
- Player ratings Francisco Alonso in the eights
- Squad Malvado out for 36 days
