From our football correspondent Steady

Market

Vinícius Silva 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 The request is on a desk at Goiânia, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Pedro Zúñiga signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Pedro Zúñiga commits to Goiânia for another 2 years.

Squad

Lázaro Romero in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Goiânia this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Maidana 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.

Boardroom

The owner puts $230.6K into Goiânia

This is money that keeps the lights on rather than money that buys a centre-half, and the difference is the whole story. A club funded by its owner rather than by its football has exactly one conversation left ahead of it.

Player ratings

Wesley Oliveira was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 19. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Match

A bad afternoon for Goiânia against Tuna Luso

0‑1 to Tuna Luso, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad

Goiânia count the cost of losing Juninho

15 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Market

Talks stall between Goiânia and Maidana

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

In brief

  • The dugout The view from the dugout
  • The dugout Maidana asks for a word with the manager
  • Looking ahead The leaders are next for Goiânia
