Guillermo Lorente is heading the list of candidates to take over the direction of Newell’s Old Boys in the December 14th election. Who is Guillermo Lorente, you might ask? I know I did. Well, to the best of my ability, not ever having met him and knowing nothing about him, here is [...]

Seems like Gamboa isn’t happy with the physical conditioning of the team. He went even so far as to blame the regimen of the previous coaching staff as the reason. You can imagine what previous coach Ricardo Caruso Lombardi had to say to that. Roughly translated, he said Gamboa is full of [...]

After a disappointing loss, I’ve finally mustered up the gumption to do another post. Bernardello will be back in the lineup on Sunday, but Fabbiani is a big doubt. Playing without him will make winning awfully hard. Even if he doesn’t score, opposing teams are constantly worried about him, creating chances for [...]

Half time, Banfield 2 - Newell’s 1. The best feed is on TVU, scroll down the channels until you find Canal 7 from Argentina. Banfield scored 4 minutes in, Fabbiani got it back, and then Banfield struck again.
