Fortaleza fans have collected many moments to celebrate the year 2021 with the state title conquered and the spectacular campaigns in the Copa do Brasil and the Brazilian Championship.

Almost at Libertadores
But Fortaleza’s spectacular year doesn’t end there. In Serie A, it holds the third position in the competition, reaching 45 points with 11 games to go.
A mark never reached by a northeastern club in the era of points run up to this point in the competition. With this, it is very close to winning a direct spot for the group stage of the Copa Libertadores 2022.
If you confirm the feat, it will be the first team from Ceará to play in the most important competition in South America. A milestone that will have the value of a great title.
Fortaleza celebrates its anniversary, but the big winner is the fan himself, who sees an offensive team on the field, under the command of the Argentine Juan Pablo Duke and that it has been getting results, despite some natural fluctuations in the process.
The tricolor fan vibrates: for the moment and for 103 years of existence of the great Leão do Pici.
