Calcio Deal Review About the Squad

América-MG arrives packed for the 2023 Brasileirão dispute, which last year was in tenth position, this year the coach and the players know they can do more.

Those led by Vagner Mancini present a solid work with several alternatives within the game, so the team plays in 4-3-3 with midfielders Juninho, Alê and Benitez, and later the formation can change to 4-2-3-1, with Benitez moving from left to center, positioning himself behind the striker.

The goal kick is played with 3 men, 2 defenders and 1 midfielder, with the wingers in front to generate numerical superiority in the attack. The team’s balance point is midfielder Juninho, at the age of 35, he is essential to set the pace with and without the ball, and attracting marks for his teammates to progress, a veteran is the team’s main leader.

Despite not winning the Campeonato Mineiro, taking second place, Coelho has everything to overcome last year’s campaign, which is why we put him fighting for a place in the Pre-Libertadores.
