Hurricane breaks attendance record at Ligga Arena

For the third consecutive game, the Athletico broke the attendance record and Lying Arenathis Wednesday (20), in the important duel against Atlético-GO.

After surpassing 40 thousand fans in the matches against Vitória and Atlético-MG, Furacão had seats from the visiting sector to reach the mark of 42,177 people in the stadium against the opponent from Goiás.

For the first time, every corner of the Arena was occupied by athletes, something that had never happened before.

This is due to the low demand from Atlético Goianiense fans, which caused Furacão to free up all the seats from the visiting fans for their own fans. This generated the Caldeirão atmosphere necessary to push the athletes on the field.

Show and ticket promotion

Since launching the “PactoRubroNegro” campaign, which made fans embrace the team, the board has been offering tickets for lower prices and providing new experiences.

The action worked, as Furacão won again after going 11 rounds without winning in the Brasileirão and is now three points away from the relegation zone. And the fans showed up in the stands.

“Oo, oh, Baixada belongs to the people”, chanted the red and blacks in the second stage.

In the final minutes, the stadium’s announcer even left the message: “Congratulations on the beautiful party”.

Against Goiás, the light show, which has been taking place in recent weeks, did not have as much effect as the duel took place in the afternoon.

However, one of the new features was the provocation of rival Coritiba with the song The Wall, by Pink Floyd. This is because the main song sung by the red-black fans in relation to the white thighs is a parody of the English band’s music.

Cuello avoids frustration from Athletico fans

The Argentine Thomas Cuello He was Athletico’s best in the victories against Atlético-MG and Atlético-GO. With the goal scored in the 49th minute of the first half, the number 28 avoided the irritation of the fans at the end of the break.

In addition to defender Lucas Belezi preventing a goal from the visitors on the line, striker Lucas Di Yorio missed a penalty conceded by himself. To top it off, goalkeeper Mycael made at least two important saves to keep the score level.

Furthermore, the support from Athletico fans was so massive that all 11 starters were applauded when the lineup was announced. Even those most criticized this season, such as right-back Leo Godoy, who has established himself as a starter in the position, and Argentine striker Lucas Di Yorio, who gained a place due to Pablo’s suspension and Mastriani’s injury, received support from the stands. .

In difficult moments during the game, shouts of “race” and “you have to run and sweat” were sung by the Red and Blacks, who celebrated wildly at the final whistle.
