Match12 Aug 2026

Sol de America through in the cup

A 4‑1 win over 12 de Junio, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Match15 Aug 2026

Alan Pereira leads the rout of Tacuary

6‑0, and Alan Pereira took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Sol de America tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Tulio Schwarz keeps Sol de America 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 ratings17 Aug 2026

Ronald Roa scores twice — 8.61

Two goals and a mark of 8.61 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Alan Pereira takes the match ball home

3 goals in one afternoon from one man. The other players were also present, a witness confirmed.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Carlos Samudio scores twice — 7.96

Two goals and a mark of 7.96 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Marcos Castellano, 20, steals the show — 8.40

Marked 8.40 at 20, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Juan Argüello, 34, rolls back the years — 8.23

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 8.23 at 34, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Market17 Aug 2026

Carlos Samudio is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Sol de America is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Market10 Aug 2026

Ronald Roa comes home

The shirt still fits. Ronald Roa is back at Sol de America, and half the ground remembers him in these colours already. Some signings need selling to the town; this one sold itself.

Boardroom10 Aug 2026

Sol de America beat the market to Alejandro Samudio from Nacional

Nacional will keep picking him until June and will get nothing for him after it. Alejandro Samudio has pre-agreed a move to Sol de America, and the only people who lose in that arrangement are the ones who let the contract run down.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Alan Pereira 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 Sol de America this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The terraces10 Aug 2026

One of their own: Fabricio Arce

He is 23 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

Market10 Aug 2026

Adrian Alderete steps up from the Sol de America academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Adrian Alderete has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Market10 Aug 2026

One of our own: Jorge Romero joins the Sol de America first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Jorge Romero is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market10 Aug 2026

Oscar Alderete steps up from the Sol de America academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Oscar Alderete has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Match8 Aug 2026

Sergio Fretes the difference as Sol de America beat Independiente CG

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Sergio Fretes. 1‑0 against Independiente CG, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Ronald Roa has outgrown this division

There is a level at which a footballer stops being tested and starts being contained, and he reached it some time ago. Sol de America know it, and so does everybody who watches him.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Juan Patiño signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Juan Patiño and Sol de America agree another 2 years.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Sol de America

Juan Patiño 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.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Brahian 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 Aug 2026

Sol de America come up short against Fernando de la Mora

Fernando de la Mora left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

The dugout3 Aug 2026

The manager makes an example of Alan Pereira

“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.

Boardroom3 Aug 2026

Nobody left the Sol de America dressing room in a hurry

The door stayed shut a long time after the final whistle. What was said in there is between them; whether it worked is between them and Saturday.

Market3 Aug 2026

Still no ink between Sol de America and Juan Patiño

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Sol de America, another week without a signature from Juan Patiño.

The dugout3 Aug 2026

Antonio Enciso: “No excuses”

“I could talk about decisions and I could talk about luck. I will not. We lost.” The manager, 0‑2, and a press conference that lasted four minutes.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Sol de America are still strangers to each other

6 new signings in one window. Every one may be an upgrade and the side can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild the verdicts never mention.

In brief
