America went down again in Series B of the Brazilian Championship. This Thursday (10/17), Coelho drew 2-2 with Goiás, in the 32nd round. Team captain, midfielder Juninho evaluated the result at Independência and commented on the future of the team in the tournament.

“The logical fallout is bad. At home, we had a good chance to get into the G4, but we didn’t. We started behind, we looked, they were in front again, and we looked”, the player began.

With the drawAmerica is in sixth place, with 49 points – one away from the fourth Mirassol, which will still enter the field. In addition, the team can be overtaken and finish the tour further away from the G4. Should he win, he would move up into the Serie A reach zone.

Despite the increasingly unfavorable situation, Juninho is still confident of returning to the First Division: “Now it’s time to rest, work, we still believe in access, it is possible. We will fight while we have the chance”, concluded the midfielder.
