Guilherme Arana is one of the main players of Atlético-MG and left the game against Fortaleza already thinking about the duel against Emelec in the round of 16 of Libertadores
This Tuesday, the 28th, the Atlético-MG visit the Emelec in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores. After an important comeback victory against Strength in the Brasileirão, the Minas Gerais club has already turned all its attention to the match that is considered the most important of the season so far.
In their last match, Galo found it difficult to beat Fortaleza. Even playing indoors, ‘El Turco‘ decided to spare some of his players and was surprised by Leão do Pici, who opened 2-0 in the first stage. However, the Athletic came back for the second half to settle the match and got the comeback.

Commenting on the game, Guilherme Arana acknowledged the team’s underwhelming start, but valued the recovery. In addition, after celebrating the victory, the player projected the confrontation against Emelec and classified this Tuesday’s match, in Ecuador, as a decision.
“All are important. Regardless of who plays, whether older or younger. Everyone here has quality, they can come in and change the game. Of course, in the first 45 minutes we were a little under, everyone. And in the second half we changed our stance. Now we have the first 90 minutes of a decision in Libertadores for us to dream a lot. All competitions we have a group and cast to fight“, said.
For the match against the Ecuadorian club, Galo must count on the return of Hulk, Nacho Fernández, Jair, Eduardo Vargas and Ademir. However, the athletics team will not have Keno, who had a confirmed muscle injury in the right thigh, and must also not have Mariano available, as the side received leave after the death of his mother and still does not have a scheduled return date.
