Squad

José Sanhueza damages knee ligaments — 74 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 74 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Squad

Bryan Ogaz says Universidad de Concepcion 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.

Squad

Tempers go at Universidad de Concepcion

Santiago Silva was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Tempers go at Universidad de Concepcion

Santiago Silva was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Facundo Mater 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.

Squad

The manager has not finished forgetting Facundo Mater's mistake

Publicly it is behind everybody. It is not behind the man who picks the team, and the only place that shows is a team sheet. He will get another chance; he will get it in a match that matters less.

Match

Universidad de Concepcion march on in the cup

Union Espanola are out and Universidad de Concepcion go through, 1‑0 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Match

Cruel end for Union Espanola as Universidad de Concepcion pounce

There is no crueller way to lose a football match. Universidad de Concepcion scored in the 110th minute, the restart barely happened, and the away end was still standing when the whistle went.

Market

Lecco come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Universidad de Concepcion did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Player ratings

Cristhofer Mesías goes up and wins it — 7.24

A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.24 for the rest of it.

Squad

Facundo Mater 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 Universidad de Concepcion this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Words at Universidad de Concepcion training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Leonel González 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 terraces

Universidad de Concepcion supporters have found a favourite in Jeison Fuentealba

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Jeison Fuentealba 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.

Match

Universidad de Concepcion get the job done against Antofagasta

A 1‑0 win over Antofagasta, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Bryan Ogaz

Successful dribbles: 17. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.
