Boys. Later in the weekend, San Lorenzo travel to Santa ... Continue reading →
Friday saw an early start to the weekend, with Banfield hosting San Martín at 3:15pm due to their

win which is a ... Continue reading →
The twelfth round of Torneo Clausura matches is upon us, and it's an early start to what is in
Argentina a long weekend (stretching from Saturday to Tuesday, believe it or not), as Estudiantes
and Vélez play each other in ... Continue reading →
The fourth round of the 2012 Torneo Clausura is already underway, but I'm scrambling to get HEGS
back up to date in between doing paid-for work, so sorry that this post is going up a few hours
later than planned. Newell's ... Continue reading →
The final round of the 2011 Torneo Clausura is upon us in Argentina, and with it an historic day.

without a single one ... Continue reading →

If Saturday wasn't already going to be a maddening enough day for fans of all the clubs involved in
the relegation dogfight in Argentina, events on Friday made sure it would become just a little more
nail-biting for fans of ... Continue reading →
The penultimate weekend of the 2011 Torneo Clausura will probably see a few issues resolved with
the relegation dogfight as mentioned yesterday, a number of sides can, if the results go the right
way, escape the thread of the ... Continue reading →
This weekend, no issues can be resolved, but a lot might become a little clearer. Two of the
title-chasers meet on Monday, when Vélez Sarsfield, licking their wounds from their Copa
Libertadores semi-final elimination, host Godoy Cruz. Gimnasia and Racing ... Continue reading →

evening, but Sunday sees a critical clash, as River Plate visit Bahía Blanca to take on one of the
title challengers and ... Continue reading →
This weekend brings another clásico for River Plate, who take on San Lorenzo on Sunday in the
Monumental. Boca Juniors, flush from the success of last Sunday's superclásico win, travel to
Sarandí to take on Arsenal. An English club of that name ... Continue reading →
The 2011 Torneo Clausura edition of one of the world's biggest football derbies kicks off in an
hour and a bit, with River Plate traveling south to La Bombonera to take on Boca Juniors in the
superclásico. Boca have been ... Continue reading →
The fourteenth round of the the 2011 Torneo Clausura has arrived, and that, of course, means it's
superclásico time. Don't forget the Hand Of Pod preview episode. There are nine other games taking
place this weekend though or rather ... Continue reading →
This weekend sees one clásico on the menu, as San Lorenzo visit Avellaneda to take on
Independiente on Sunday evening. Arsenal de Sarandí host Racing in a game only the home fans will
be thinking of as a clásico, and Newell's ... Continue reading →
It's a weekend packed full of derbies in Argentina, this one. No fewer than four of the ten top
flight matches being played in this round are clásicos, with all of the 'Big Five' being involved
in one: San Lorenzo ... Continue reading →
The eleventh round of the 2011 Torneo Clausura took a day off on Good Friday, and runs from

Sarsfield are at home to Quilmes on ... Continue reading →
The tenth round of the 2011 Torneo Clausura gets underway in a few hours' time when Quilmes host
Newell's Old Boys. If it will be hard to avoid the temptation to give that one a miss (they've
looked by some ... Continue reading →
The ninth round of the 2011 Torneo Clausura is already underway as I type, with Estudiantes and San
Lorenzo two title contenders currently drawing 0-0 at half time in Quilmes' stadium (Estudiantes'
ground is still being cleared up ... Continue reading →

match. Olimpo have a very tough assignment if ... Continue reading →
The Torneo Clausura pattern returns to normal this weekend, with two games on Friday and none on
Monday, now that daytime kick offs are once again allowed by the players' union with the return of
autumn to Buenos Aires. The ... Continue reading →
There were no matches on Friday evening this week, but the sixth round of the 2011 Torneo Clausura
sees afternoon (rather than early evening) kick offs return now that the worst of the Argentine
summer is over. Quilmes and Independiente, ... Continue reading →
This weekend sees underwhelming Vélez Sarsfield visit high-flying River Plate (it seems odd to be
writing it that way round, but I'll be at the game on Sunday), Racing visit Colón and a clásico
to make the mouth water in ... Continue reading →
The fourth round of the 2011 Torneo Clausura features not one but two clásicos, two potentially
tricky assignments for the joint leaders, and a tall task for Boca Juniors to try and get into
their stride. They visit Vélez, whilst ... Continue reading →
The second round of the 2011 Torneo Clausura features a right old ding-dong in Avellaneda, with a
Juan Román Riquelme-less Boca Juniors travelling to a Giovanni Moreno-less Racing Club. HEGS will
be watching from the press box for the first ... Continue reading →
The 2011 Torneo Clausura is finally upon us, complete with a suitably nationalistic nametag from
the government/AFA. This short championship will be known as the Torneo Clausura Néstor Kirchner
Copa Malvinas Argentinas, just to remind us Brits in Buenos Aires ... Continue reading →
