Boardroom19 Mar 2029

Pressure builds in the Cianorte boardroom

The directors have stopped offering the manager public warmth. In football that is usually the stage before the short statement.

Squad19 Mar 2029

A falling-out at Cianorte

Gabriel Mineiro and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad19 Mar 2029

Words at Cianorte training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Alexsandro is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The dugout19 Mar 2029

Cianorte keep their word to Franco Migueles

Clubs make promises constantly and the page usually only hears about them when they are broken. This one was honoured, and the dressing room noticed that faster than any supporter did.

The dugout19 Mar 2029

The manager makes an example of Igor Silva

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Market19 Mar 2029

The Danilo Peu question follows Cianorte around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Danilo Peu’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

The dugout19 Mar 2029

Gergely Sulyok knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Gergely Sulyok trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Squad19 Mar 2029

Igor Silva: “I am not a substitute”

“I have done everything asked of me in training and it has not changed a thing on a Saturday.” The most familiar complaint in football, and one Cianorte will have to answer with minutes or with a transfer.

Market19 Mar 2029

The shop window has Santiago Guzmán in it

Cianorte have let the market know Santiago Guzmán can be had. No price in the advert, but everyone in the trade knows roughly what it says.

The terraces24 Apr 2028

The mood at Cianorte has turned into something else

Supporters who sing when it goes badly are supporters. Supporters who gather afterwards are a problem, and everybody inside the building knows which of the two this now is.

No sign of nerves from Juan Manuel Guerrero at 19 — 7.85

The hardest thing about being 19 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Juan Manuel Guerrero did not need any: 7.85, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Squad24 Apr 2028

A falling-out at Cianorte

Gabriel Mineiro and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The terraces24 Apr 2028

Cianorte supporters have found a favourite in Juan Manuel Guerrero

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 19-year-old it feels ownership of. Juan Manuel Guerrero has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Match22 Apr 2028

Juan Manuel Guerrero the difference as Cianorte beat Goiatuba

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Juan Manuel Guerrero. 1‑0 against Goiatuba, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Squad24 Apr 2028

Jhonathan 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.

Squad24 Apr 2028

Igor Silva signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Igor Silva and Cianorte agree another 3 years.

The dugout24 Apr 2028

The view from the dugout

“We controlled it. There were spells I did not like and we will look at them, but the group showed me something.” Roberto Costa, on a 1‑0 win that he was already picking apart on the walk to the press room.

The dugout24 Apr 2028

Gergely Sulyok gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

The dugout17 Apr 2028

Matheus Gonçalves says Cianorte 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.

Squad17 Apr 2028

A one-man rearguard from David Lucas

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Boardroom17 Apr 2028

4 academy players handed senior numbers at Cianorte

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Match15 Apr 2028

Danilo Peu sends Cianorte past São Luiz

It finished 2‑1, and it was Danilo Peu’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Cianorte.

Squad17 Apr 2028

Words exchanged at Cianorte

David Lucas 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.

The terraces17 Apr 2028

The crowd has taken to Franco Migueles

At 23 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Market17 Apr 2028

Igor Silva steps up from the Cianorte academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Igor Silva has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Market17 Apr 2028

Cianorte promote Renato Oliveira from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Renato Oliveira has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Market17 Apr 2028

One of our own: Rodriguinho joins the Cianorte first team

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