Ignacio Schor beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 40. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Squad3 May 2027

Remember the name: Joaquín Muñoz

He is 17, he is averaging 6.55, and older professionals have started passing to him in the difficult minutes. That last part is the real scouting report.

Luis Cabrera keeps the receipts

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

Match1 May 2027

The wait goes on for O'Higgins

4 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Squad3 May 2027

Tomás López gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Tomás López has just signed for O'Higgins, and for once the answer mattered.

A falling-out at O'Higgins

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

Squad3 May 2027

David Fernández 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.

Match1 May 2027

The goals have deserted O'Higgins

3 matches, no goals, and a training ground that has tried everything. It will end — droughts always do — but nobody at O'Higgins can tell you which week it ends in.

The dugout3 May 2027

Joaquín Muñoz 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.

Transfer targets4 Jan 2027

O'Higgins bid $5.4M for Sheyko Studer

The offer went to Independiente Rivadavia this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Benjamín Rojas says O'Higgins 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.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Words exchanged at O'Higgins

David Fernández 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.

Transfer targets4 Jan 2027

No deal for Yastin Cuevas at that price

O'Higgins offered $170.0K; Colo-Colo said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.

Squad4 Jan 2027

Bastián Yáñez signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Bastián Yáñez commits to O'Higgins for another 3 years.

The dugout4 Jan 2027

Thiago Vecino 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.

Squad4 Jan 2027

A row about effort at O'Higgins

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Sergio Riffo was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The dugout4 Jan 2027

David Fernández asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Squad4 Jan 2027

O'Higgins have started building around Ignacio Schor

He used to be one of the options. He is now one of the men the options are picked around, and the change happened quietly enough that only the dressing room noticed on the day.
