Atlético-MG ultras put pressure on squad after Botafogo defeat | OneFootball

Atlético-MG lost 1-0 to Botafogo on Saturday, playing the entire second half with an extra player. The situation was reminiscent of the teams' clash in the 2024 Libertadores final, when Galo also failed to capitalize on the numerical advantage. This situation caused irritation among some of the Minas Gerais team's fans and led to a summons early Sunday morning for the entire Atlético delegation.

Players and management talk with fans

Upon the delegation's arrival at Belo Horizonte International Airport, members of Atlético's organized fan group made demands of the team. Goalkeeper Everson, full-back Guilherme Arana, and football director Victor Bagy agreed to speak with the fans, who even mentioned a “final warning” regarding the club's situation.

Negative streak causes concern

Atlético hasn't won in 7 games and is currently in 13th place in the Brasileirão with 25 points. The series of poor results has generated dissatisfaction among fans and increased pressure on the team and coaching staff.
