Match

Millonarios march on in the cup

Llaneros are out and Millonarios go through, 2‑0 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Julian Angulo

Successful dribbles: 30. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Mateo García 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 Millonarios this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Brayan Campáz

At 21 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.

Squad

No hiding place for Leonardo Castro

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Leonardo Castro, and the manager let it.

Match

A bad afternoon for Millonarios against Envigado

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

Squad

Words at Millonarios training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jorge Arias 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.

Player ratings

Nothing got past Alex Moreno Paz

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 19 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Player ratings

Dewar Victoria shuts the door

Defensive actions: 19, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

Squad

Diego Novoa keeps Millonarios in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 9 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Julian Angulo

Successful dribbles: 29. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market

Millonarios may not be able to give Alex Castro what he wants

It is the most legitimate ambition in the sport and the hardest for most clubs to satisfy. Alex Castro wants continental football; whether Millonarios can provide it is a question about the next two seasons, not about him.

Squad

Leonardo Castro signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Leonardo Castro and Millonarios agree another 2 years.

Squad

Tempers go at Millonarios

Julian Angulo 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

Mateo García 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.

Market

Talks stall between Millonarios and Sérgio Mosquera

“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.

Market

Nobody at Millonarios has picked up the phone to Santiago Giordana

36 months to run and not a word offered. A club that lets the calendar negotiate for it usually ends up losing to the calendar.

Player ratings

Nothing got past Rodrigo Ureña

14 defensive actions and a clean sheet at the end of them. A defender's afternoon can only be told by what did not happen, which is why nobody makes a highlights package out of one and every manager in the division would take it.

In brief
