Squad

Felipe Zenobio is the hero from the spot

A shoot-out is remembered by its ending, and this one ends with Felipe Zenobio: 1 kept out, and a set of supporters who will describe every one of them for the next twenty years.

Market

Imanol González asks to leave Tigre

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Match

8 unbeaten for Tigre

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 8 matches without defeat is a foundation Tigre did not have in the autumn.

Squad

Santiago López is the real thing at 21

A season average of 7.09 at an age when most of his year group are still in the youth team. Tigre know what they have, and so, by now, does everybody else.

Squad

Joaquín Laso out for 17 days

The medical room confirms 17 days on the sidelines for Joaquín Laso, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Jalil Elías

“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.

Match

Tigre and Sarmiento cancel each other out

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

The terraces

Everybody has an opinion about Marcos Enrique

He is the name in every column and on every phone-in, which is a heavy thing to carry at any age. Some footballers thrive on it; others are quietly finished by it.

Market

Still no signature from Leonel Álvarez

1 months left and the two sides are nowhere near each other. Every week this drags on takes money off what Tigre could get for him.

Squad

Felipe Zenobio is the hero from the spot

A shoot-out is remembered by its ending, and this one ends with Felipe Zenobio: 3 kept out, and a set of supporters who will describe every one of them for the next twenty years.

Market

Sebastián Medina hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Tigre can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Brandon Leszczuk says Tigre 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.

Match

7 unbeaten for Tigre

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 7 matches without defeat is a foundation Tigre did not have in the autumn.

Squad

Alan Lezcano out for 16 days

The medical room confirms 16 days on the sidelines for Alan Lezcano, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Alejandro Medina

“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.

Boardroom

Tigre release $4.0M for the manager

The board have put money on the table rather than an encouraging word. What happens to it now is somebody else's problem, and somebody else's job.

Match

Tigre and Unión de Santa Fe cancel each other out

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

Market

The Felipe Zenobio talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Tigre know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Match

Tigre march on in the cup

River Plate are out and Tigre go through, 2-1 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Squad

Alejandro Medina says Tigre 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.

Match

6 unbeaten for Tigre

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 6 matches without defeat is a foundation Tigre did not have in the autumn.

Squad

Felipe Zenobio 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.

Squad

Jabes Saralegui is in the form of his life

A season average of 7.47 with 4 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

Squad

Costly mistake from Felipe Zenobio

An error at the back is a moment; an error in goal is a goal. Felipe Zenobio knows it, the crowd knew it instantly, and there was nobody behind him to make it anything else.

The terraces

The spotlight tightens on Felipe Zenobio

Every touch is being weighed now, in print and everywhere else. Some players grow into that and some are quietly ruined by it, and nobody knows which in advance.

Market

Nobody at Tigre has picked up the phone to Leonel Álvarez

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

Market

Tigre put Marcos Enrique up for sale

The list is a quiet document with a loud meaning. Marcos Enrique may talk to anybody who asks, and everybody at the club understands what that means.

In brief

  • Boardroom Tigre were not finished after all
  • The terraces The press have found their man in Bruno Leyes
  • The terraces The stand has a song for Jabes Saralegui

Match

Tigre are in among the leaders

Position 2 and 27 points on the board. Nobody at the ground will say the word out loud yet, and everybody at the ground is thinking it.

A season average of 7.32 with 4 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

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

Joaquín Mosqueira knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Tigre, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market

Imanol González asks to leave Tigre

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

At 21, Santiago López is already the best thing here

An average of 7.08 in a first team he is several years too young for. Tigre have something, and by now the whole division has noticed.

Match

Tigre see off Atlético Tucumán

Three points for Tigre, 1-0 the final word against Atlético Tucumán in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Alan Barrionuevo

“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.

Squad

Elías Cabrera unhappy with how he is being used

Asked to play a role that is not his, or taken off before the hour once too often — Elías Cabrera has let it be known that he does not like the way Tigre are using him. Managers hear this long before the press does.

Market

Leonel Álvarez runs his contract down

2 months remain and no agreement is close. Every week without a signature costs Tigre money.

Match

Tigre find a way past Barracas Central

Barracas Central made Tigre work for it, but the scoreboard read 1-0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Squad

Alejandro Medina stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Alejandro Medina and Tigre agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

Santiago González is carrying Tigre

4 goals and a season average of 7.25. Form like that gets noticed well beyond this town.

Squad

Felipe Zenobio called up by his country

A window away with the national side, and a shirt at Tigre that briefly doubles as an advertisement. A call-up flatters the player and the club that built him in the same breath.

Thiago Airala: 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.” Tigre have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad

Gonzalo Martínez signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Gonzalo Martínez commits to Tigre for another 2 years.

Banfield take the points off Tigre

Beaten 0-1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Tigre march on in the cup

Independiente are out and Tigre go through, 2-1 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Match

Still nobody has beaten Tigre

The unbeaten run reaches 11. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Market

Sebastián Medina hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Tigre can pretend not to have heard.

Match

Tigre get the job done against Gimnasia La Plata

A 2-1 win over Gimnasia La Plata, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Squad

Jabes Saralegui is carrying Tigre

3 goals and a season average of 7.42. Form like that gets noticed well beyond this town.

Squad

Tomás Sultani lets one through his hands

A defender's mistake gets tidied up by somebody else; a goalkeeper's ends up in the net. He knew before the ball crossed the line, and so did everybody in the ground.

Loan watch

Alejandro Medina wants to come home

“I did not go to Philadelphia Union to sit and watch. I want to come back to Tigre and fight for my place.” 6 appearances in 19 matches say the rest.

Squad

Santiago González suspended

One booking too many, and Santiago González sits out. Tigre lose him for the sort of avoidable reason that makes a manager's week longer.

A conversation is coming this week. Tigre will put a number on him, and from there it stops being football and becomes arithmetic.

Luka Fuster 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.

Market

Emilio Ambiela is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at Tigre has been clear about where Emilio Ambiela stands, which is more than many ever get.

Tigre bring in Juan Cruz Arno on loan

A season-long audition: Maipú still own him, but the shirt and the minutes are Tigre's to give. A loan is a bet both clubs believe they are winning.

Tigre up to position 1

27 points on the board and a place in the leading group. Nobody at the ground is saying the word out loud yet.

Market

Independiente come back empty-handed

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

Market

Ramón Arias moves on

Argentinos Juniors pay $170.0K, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Squad

Tigre lose Alan Barrionuevo

69 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Boardroom

Tigre release $4.0M for the manager

The board have put money on the table rather than an encouraging word. What happens to it now is somebody else's problem, and somebody else's job.

Loan watch

Alejandro Medina has seen enough of Philadelphia Union

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Tigre, and 1 appearances in 5 say he has earned the hearing.

The manager makes an example of Alfio Oviedo

“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.

Match

Tigre up to position 2

21 points on the board and a place in the leading group. Nobody at the ground is saying the word out loud yet.

Market

Federico Álvarez asks to leave Tigre

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

Santiago González stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Santiago González and Tigre agree another 5 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Market

Tigre sign Marcos Enrique for $230.0K

The paperwork is done: Marcos Enrique joins from Patronato in a deal worth $230.0K. Now comes the harder part.

Squad

Santiago González 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.

Market

Talleres watching Federico Álvarez

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Tigre have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Joaquín Mosqueira: 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.” Tigre have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad

Santiago González knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Tigre, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market

Santiago González runs his contract down

1 months remain and no agreement is close. Every week without a signature costs Tigre money.

The month belongs to Santiago González

The award is a small thing with a heavy meaning: for four weeks nobody in this division did his job better. Tigre have the trophy on a shelf and the player in the side.

The manager makes an example of Gonzalo Piñeiro

“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.

Match

Still nobody has beaten Tigre

The unbeaten run reaches 7. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Tigre see off Atlético Tucumán

Three points for Tigre, 3-2 the final word against Atlético Tucumán in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad

Costly mistake from Felipe Zenobio

An error at the back is a moment; an error in goal is a goal. Felipe Zenobio knows it, the crowd knew it instantly, and there was nobody behind him to make it anything else.

David Romero moves on

RC Strasbourg pay $4.5M, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.
