Well, Gaston Machin is lodging a formal complaint against Newell’s looking to receive back wages. If Newell’s doesn’t work something out, he would be out of contract and able to return to Independiente. He was fine with the payment arrangements with the new administration, since the debt was from the tenure of Lope$. [...]

Suck! 1-1

Well, that Newell’s managed to scrape a draw out of that mess is I guess good news. Video of the goals after the break.
Salcedo got his first goal in his first game back on a nifty free kick to tie the game up, so that is a bright point. At least they [...]

I just saw that Omar Labruna is making a couple of changes and going with a 4-4-2 against Newell’s.
The plan is pretty simple. They are going to defend like crazy and hope for a strike off the counter attack. While that is pretty much always their game plan, dropping into a 4-4-2 almost [...]

Le Lepra look to continue their torrid start by beating up on Gimnasia de Jujuy today in el Coloso.
A bit of a surprise, Leandro “2 goals in 2 games” Armani will start out on the bench and Santiago Salcedo will get his first start back with Newell’s. Insaurralde also is back after [...]

I found a couple of clips from the game. The first is a highlight reel with both teams plays on it, and at some point an English commentator kicks in. The second is just the goals in good old Spanish.

Just like that and Newell’s is 2-0 to start the season. I’m sensing a trend, a scoreless first half followed by mulit-goal second halfs and smothering defense.
Even with a few dodgy free kicks awarded to Boca, I thought the referee did a good job, and the linesman was all over the offside positions that [...]

The same starting 11 from last week except for Nico Spolli in for Insaurralde (yellows). Salcedo will start on the bench. Newell’s hasn’t won in La Bombonera since the 2004 championship.
2:10 pm Eastern time start. Watch it here or here.
Dale Newell’s!
(My predicition 2-1 Newell’s, goals by Armani and Salcedo off the bench)

Santiago Salcedo watched Saturday’s game from the box with several of the directors and Alejandro Da Silva. Next week, he plans to be on the pitch, scoring goals. In the meantime, here is a little video of the Clausura 08 goal he scored to beat Sin Aliento 1-0.
It was the now [...]

What a way to open up the Clausura. A three goal win at home, with players that Gamboa had basically discarded. Mauro Formica opened the scoring in the second half with a goal that has to be seen in slow motion to appreciate it. A fantastic, if fast, cross from Mauricio Sperduti [...]

Here it is, hot off the presses. Only four people are the same from the last year’s season opener.
Peratta; Pillud, Insaurralde, Schiavi, Quiroga; Sperduti, Bernardi, Bernardello, Vangioni; Formica and Armani.
The bench will see Caffa, Spolli, Machuca, Machin, Cristaldo, Monsalvo, Perez, L. Torres, Steinert, and Cobelli.
Since Lucas Bernardi’s transfer arrived in time from France, he [...]
