Squad10 Jul 2028

Luis Marquínez keeps Atletico Nacional in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 7 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Juan Manuel Zapata shuts the door

Defensive actions: 27, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

Squad10 Jul 2028

Andrés Román 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 Atletico Nacional this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad10 Jul 2028

Yéicar Perlaza 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.

Squad10 Jul 2028

Juan Manuel Rengifo signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Juan Manuel Rengifo commits to Atletico Nacional for another 4 years.

Andrés Sarmiento runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 17. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Jorman Campuzano shuts the door

Defensive actions: 17, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

A defender's afternoon for Simón García

Defensive actions: 15. He was first to everything and second to nothing, and the goalkeeper had an easy day because of it.

Match8 Jul 2028

Atletico Nacional and America de Cali cancel each other out

Nil-nil, and few chances worth the name. America de Cali came to defend and left with exactly what they came for.

Squad1 Mar 2027

A knee injury of the worst kind for Alfredo Morelos

40 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Atletico Nacional lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Match24 Feb 2027

The cup run ends for Atletico Nacional

2‑2 against Barranquilla, and the road stops here. Cup exits are quick deaths — no second leg, no next week, just the league from now until May.

Market1 Mar 2027

Alejandro Rodríguez puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Atletico Nacional, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad1 Mar 2027

David Ospina decides it from twelve yards

1 kept out in the shoot-out, and a stadium that will still be describing them in twenty years. A goalkeeper only needs one of these to be remembered forever.

Squad1 Mar 2027

Frank Ruiz says Atletico Nacional 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.

No sign of nerves from Neider Parra at 21 — 8.02

The hardest thing about being 21 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Neider Parra did not need any: 8.02, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Squad1 Mar 2027

9 seasons of Franco Armani

457 appearances across 9 seasons in these colours. Careers like that are not built any more, and Atletico Nacional know what they have.

Market1 Mar 2027

Andrés Arroyo wants European nights

The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.

Player ratings1 Mar 2027

Marlos Moreno runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 20. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Simón García: 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.” Atletico Nacional have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market2 Nov 2026

Franco Armani wants to know where this is going

“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at Atletico Nacional hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Juan Manuel Guerrero named in the team of the month

A month is long enough that nobody gets in by accident. Juan Manuel Guerrero is in the division's best eleven for it, which is a quieter compliment than an award and a more reliable one.
