Torneo Apertura 2009: round 15 fixtures

Hasta El Gol Siempre @ 07:30 AM EST
The title race gathers pace. At the top, joint leaders Banfield visit Independiente, who will move to within three points with a win. Fellow pace-setters Newell's Old Boys are at home in the clásico rosarino, perhaps the country's most passionate. Third- and fourth-placed sides both play tonight: Colón are away to Lanús, prior to which [. Click to continue reading...

The news this week

Hasta El Gol Siempre @ 07:49 PM EST
HEGS has lost a little of its news value lately due to diminishing spare time on my part, so as of today I'm going to try and remedy that slightly. As Thursday turns into Friday at the start of each round from now on, I'll be giving a quick rundown of some of the main [...] Click to continue reading...

Angel Cappa to leave Huracán

Hasta El Gol Siempre @ 08:33 PM EST
It's been a funny old year for Ángel Cappa and Huracán. After a storming Torneo Clausura in which they were robbed of the title only on the last day by some appalling officiating, they've fallen away drastically in the second half of the year. Cappa tried to resign last week, but the players talked him [. Click to continue reading...

Argentines Abroad: 14th & 15th November 2009

Hasta El Gol Siempre @ 06:00 AM EST
Well, the national team were abroad, of course, but we're not counting them. The Brazilian and Mexican leagues were the major top flights in action in spite of the international break during the weekend just gone, and there were goals in both of them. You can read about them and watch them right here, as [. Click to continue reading...

Torneo Apertura 2009: round 14 goals

Hasta El Gol Siempre @ 06:55 PM EST
Over the course of the 2009 Torneo Apertura, the mantra of fútbol para todos has transmogrified into something meaning that one easily embeddable, easily findable goal video for the whole round has become increasingly hard to find. The closest I can find are the four videos embedded here, which viewed in order will give you [. Click to continue reading...

Torneo Apertura 2009: round 14 scores and scorers

Hasta El Gol Siempre @ 09:41 PM EST
The fourteenth round of the Torneo Apertura ended on Monday. Relegation strugglers Racing claiming a hard-fought win over the champions of South America, Estudiantes de La Plata, thanks to a goal from a former Estudiantes player. Estudiantes' city rivals Gimnasia tore Huracán to shreds, running out 4-1 winners in a match which saw two superb [. Click to continue reading...

Millonarios show some character

Hasta El Gol Siempre @ 09:53 PM EST
In probably the most unexpected development of the domestic league's fourteenth round, River Plate played with spirit and intelligence to overturn a deficit and actually win a football match on Sunday afternoon. 1-0 down after only two-and-a-half minutes at home to Atlético Tucumán, it looked like the same old story for River.

Spain 2 – 1 Argentina: the goals

Hasta El Gol Siempre @ 04:20 PM EST
Argentina were thoroughly outclassed by the European champions on Saturday night in the Vicente Calderón, losing 2-1. Xabi Alonso scored twice for the home side, the second a late penalty, whilst Lionel Messi got a temporary equaliser also from the spot after just over an hour. I wasn't in the best shape last night, hence [. Click to continue reading...

Riquelme’s Corinthian spirit

Hasta El Gol Siempre @ 03:15 PM EST
Stories in the Brazilian press at the start of the week had Corinthians, one of the country's biggest clubs and the current employers of Ronaldo, planning to sign Juan Román Riquelme from Boca Juniors in a bid to boost their Copa Libertadores campaign in 2010, their centenary year. I've written about it for Soccernet, and [. Click to continue reading...

Torneo Apertura 2009: round 14 fixtures

Hasta El Gol Siempre @ 07:00 AM EST
Due to the AFA's complete inability to comprehend that some of us are running blogs about their league in our spare time from a time zone three hours ahead and rather enjoyed having not much to do on a Monday evening, Monday afternoon and evening matches begin in earnest this week. Rodrigo Archubi, found guilty [. Click to continue reading...

Rosario Central 3 – 0 Estudiantes: the goals

Hasta El Gol Siempre @ 05:03 PM EST
Due to December's Club World Cup in the United Arab Emirates, the Torneo Apertura eighteenth round match between Central and Estudiantes de La Plata was moved forward to last night in order to avoid a fixture clash later in the year for the South American champions. Taking their eye off the ball, Estudiantes played dreadfully [. Click to continue reading...

Argentines Abroad: 6th November to now

Hasta El Gol Siempre @ 06:55 PM EST
Argentines Abroad is delayed slightly this week by the Monday night fixture bumping the normal domestic coverage a day on, and the fact I've been writing an article for another site (more of which later in the week). That's useful in some ways because the Copa del Rey in Spain has ensured there's action to [. Click to continue reading...

Hasta El Gol Siempre @ 06:44 PM EST
The thirteenth round of the 2009 Torneo Apertura ended on Monday night with a late, late goal from Arsenal de Sarandí midfielder Diego Galván which clinched a point for El Arse after they'd trailed for practically the entire second half to Huracán. Angel Cappa's team were thus denied a third win of the campaign. Click to continue reading...

Hasta El Gol Siempre @ 09:13 PM EST
Following Newell's Old Boys' victory over River Plate on Saturday, the other sides hoping to keep up in the race for the title had to win on Sunday, and two of them managed it.
