This Tuesday, Cruzeiro announced that all tickets for the clássico against Atlético-MG have been sold out. The match, which is the second leg of the Copa do Brasil quarterfinals, will take place on Thursday, September 11, at 7:30 PM (Brasília time), at Mineirão, in Belo Horizonte.
The Cabuloso, who won the first match 2-0, can lose by up to one goal and still secure a spot in the semifinals of the competition. Galo is trailing on aggregate and needs a three-goal margin or more to advance in regular time.
This season, Cruzeiro is competing in both the Copa do Brasil and the Brasileirão. In the league, they are in second place, three points behind leaders Flamengo, who have 47. Cabuloso is on a three-game unbeaten streak.
Without a new coach since Cuca’s dismissal, Atlético-MG is experiencing the opposite situation of their rival. In the competition, they haven’t won in four games and are in 14th place with 24 points. In addition to the Brasileirão, they are still in the Copa Sudamericana, fighting for a spot in the semifinals against Bolívar.
