From our football correspondent Upbeat

Market

Raúl Ferrari hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Chacarita Juniors can pretend not to have heard.

Match

Eduardo Pérez sends Chacarita Juniors past Madryn

It finished 2‑1, and it was Eduardo Pérez’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Chacarita Juniors.

The terraces

Chacarita Juniors supporters have found a favourite in Pablo González

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 20-year-old it feels ownership of. Pablo González 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.

Player ratings

Ninety minutes of Ezequiel Colombo at his very best

Marked 8.19. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Chacarita Juniors.

Squad

When it matters, Jesús Peralta plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Squad

Daniel Suárez 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.

Player ratings

Valentino Silva runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 13. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

José Luis Miranda dropped after a run of poor form

The one version of being left out a player cannot argue with, and the one he takes worst. Somebody else has been better and the team sheet says so, in public, every week until it changes.

Squad

Eduardo Pérez is off the mark for Chacarita Juniors

The first one is the one every signing is asked about until it arrives. It has arrived, and he can stop being asked.

Squad

Ezequiel Colombo breaks a bone — 71 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 71 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market

Roberto Blanco asks to leave Chacarita Juniors

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

Roberto Cabrera: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Chacarita Juniors have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Player ratings

No sign of nerves from Hernán Benítez at 20 — 7.68

The hardest thing about being 20 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Hernán Benítez did not need any: 7.68, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Squad

Daniel Suárez keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Chacarita Juniors may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Hernán Benítez

At 20 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.

Match

Chacarita Juniors find a way past Madryn

Madryn made Chacarita Juniors work for it, but the scoreboard read 1‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Squad

Ricardo Iglesias signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Ricardo Iglesias commits to Chacarita Juniors for another 3 years.

Squad

The manager makes an example of José Luis Miranda

“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.

Boardroom

$84.0K lands at Chacarita Juniors thanks to Luis Rossi

A clause somebody insisted on years ago, in a negotiation nobody remembers, has just paid Chacarita Juniors $84.0K. Luis Rossi left a long time ago; the paperwork stayed.

Squad

Chacarita Juniors keep their word to Maximiliano Miranda

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.

Boardroom

$15.2K a year onto the Chacarita Juniors books

A new partner, a signature and a photograph nobody will remember. It funds a fortnight of wages, which is more than most headlines on this page can say for themselves.
