After 92 days out of Coritiba,Robson, finally, appeared again on the team’s related list. The thigh-white top scorer can reinforce the team this Tuesday (25), against Amazonas, in the 12th round of Series B.
The striker has not entered the field since the Campeonato Paranaense, in the semi-final duel with Maringá. In the game, Robson suffered an injury to his right knee and had to undergo arthroscopic surgery. Since then, the player has been undergoing physiotherapy treatment.
The number 30 is the top scorer of the season, with 11 goals in 15 games. If he enters this Tuesday’s game, it will be the athlete’s first match in Series B. Without Robson, Matheus Frizzo took over the top score in the Second League, who scored four goals in ten games.
Coxa takes the field at 9:30 pm against Amazonas, at the Carlos Zamith Stadium, in Manaus. In addition to Robson’s return, striker Brandão will be absent from the team after suffering a sprain in his right ankle.
A likely Coritiba has: Pedro Morisco; Natanael, Maurício Antônio, Bruno Melo and Rodrigo Gelado; Morelli, Vini Paulista (Sebastián Gómez) and Matheus Frizzo; Figueiredo, Lucas Ronier and Damião.
With Robson, Coritiba hopes to improve offensive power
Robson’s return is highly anticipated by the thigh-white fans. At the beginning of the Second Division, the team had difficulty scoring. Currently, Coritiba is the team that takes the most shots on goal in Series B, along with Santos, but is one of the teams that wastes the most chances.
In 11 games, Alviverde has an average of five shots on goal per game. Even so, they suffer difficulties in finishing, and have already missed nine goal chances in the competition. The data is from the website Sofa Score. The expectation is that, with Robson’s return, the Cox-Branc offensive power will increase.
