Manaus (AM) – Amazonas FC has the chance, this Sunday (25), to be champion of the first round of the 2023 Amazonense Championship and to guarantee itself in the Barezão final. The title would also qualify the club for the Copa do Brasil and the Copa Verde in 2025. For one of the founders and current executive director of the Eastern Zone Jaguar, Roberto Peggy, São Raimundo is the favorite to be champion.
“We will face one of the biggest clubs in Amazonas, a centenarian, three times champion of the North, owner of a very heavy shirt and a fanatical fan base. For all these factors, and for having eliminated the best teams in the competition in the last stages, São Raimundo is the favorite”,
pointed out Roberto Peggy.
After starting the season with stumbles, Onça accumulated five consecutive victories and, last Wednesday (21), advanced to the second phase of the Copa do Brasil by beating Independente-AP 1-0, at the Zerão stadium, in Macapá (AP). According to the manager, fatigue could be another enemy for the team this Sunday.
“Our pre-season started in January and, despite the stumbles at the beginning, the team has been evolving within the working concepts of Luizinho (Vieira, Amazonas coach). Our board trusts this group of athletes, who on Wednesday, in the Copa do Brasil game, fought hard and demonstrated a very good competitive spirit. We know it will be difficult, but we will pursue this achievement with great determination and determination”, explained Peggy.
The duel between Aurinegros and Albicelestes takes place this Sunday, at 6pm, at Arena da Amazônia, and is worth the title of Barezão’s first round. The winner, in addition to guaranteeing a place in the competition’s decision, also qualifies for the Copa do Brasil and the Copa Verde in 2025. Tickets for the match can be purchased on the day of the game at the stadium’s ticket office, starting at 4pm.
