Bruno Brígido wins the shoot-out
2 kept out from twelve yards, and a stadium that will describe each of them for twenty years. A goalkeeper needs one night like this in a career, and this was it.

The small margins put América Mineiro out
Out, 2‑2 to Chapecoense, and the long argument about which of the small moments decided it. The league is all there is now, and everybody knows it.

Guilherme Nogueira agrees terms with Maranhão

América Mineiro say no — this time
The offer from Criciúma for Rafa Barcelos was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.
Match1 Jul 2028
América Mineiro end the wait against Paysandu
It had gone 9 games. The players did not celebrate like men who had won a match; they celebrated like men who had been let out of something.

América Mineiro get their man
The chase for Henrique ended with $680.0K changing hands and Paysandu out of reasons to say no. The supporters will judge the fee the only way that matters: on Saturdays.

Eduardo Person stays put
“The easiest signature of my career.” Eduardo Person and América Mineiro agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.
In brief
