Agustín Martegani breaks a bone — 17 days out
Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 17 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Cup progress for Alianza Atletico
A 1‑0 win over Cesar Vallejo, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

What a way to start for Andre Trauco — 7.78
1 on the scoresheet on his first appearance and a mark of 7.78 beside it. Most debuts are got through; this one was enjoyed, by him and by everybody watching it.

Andre Trauco breaks Cesar Vallejo hearts
Some goals win a match and some take one off somebody else. Andre Trauco scored in the 88th minute, Cesar Vallejo had already begun thinking about the journey home, and Alianza Atletico took the lot.

One of their own: Andre Trauco
He is 20 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.

Alianza Atletico find a way past Juan Aurich
Juan Aurich made Alianza Atletico work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

A row about effort at Alianza Atletico
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Williams Guzmán was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.
