Ceará lives its best moment in the 2020 season, with qualification in the quarterfinals of the Brazil Cup to face Palmeiras and with five unbeaten matches in the Brazilian Serie A. The atmosphere would be the best possible in Castelão, today at 8.30 pm, with a live broadcast from Verdinha (AM 810), against Sport in the opening of the second leg, but the team won the last minute absences. Star Vina tested positive for the new coronavirus and is out of the Northeast classic. In addition to him, Eduardo Brock, who would be the starter of the match, also has a certain absence for the same reasons. The information was verified by the report of the Verdes Mares System.

Until the closing of this edition, Ceará did not reveal details of the medical situation of each athlete. What is known is that Vina is asymptomatic and a retest was performed, but with an unknown result. If there is confirmation, the black and white should also be out of the match against Palmeiras, for the Copa do Brasil, on Wednesday (11), at 16:30.
Direct confrontation
The match against Sport is considered a direct confrontation in the table, with both separated by 1 point and within the classification zone for the South American Cup.
Today’s match with the people of Pernambuco has a divided approach by the commitment against Palmeiras, but its importance is great for Alvinegra’s campaign. A win can put Grandpa 9th, ahead of today’s opponent, plus the chance to open 7 points for Z4. Just as a defeat can allow an approach to the bottom block. Therefore, although it is inevitable that he no longer thinks about Alviverde, due to the proximity of the game, it is necessary to have an approach against the Sport team, even with coach Guto Ferreira being able to save some more worn parts.
More absences
In addition to Vina and Brock, three other important players will be “saved” from the ban: Fabinho and Leandro Carvalho received the third yellow card, while Luiz Otávio was sent off. For the post of midfielder and defense, the trend is for Pedro Naressi and Klaus to take over, while Léo Chú remains in the starting eleven, but without Leandro Carvalho as an option.
Head of Vovô, Tiago Pagnussat recalled that in the match in Ilha do Retiro, for the debut of Serie A, Alvinegro was not in full concentration, as he had been champion of the Northeast Cup days before, losing the match 3 to 2 .
“It hurt. The fact that we played from the fourth to the final, we traveled to Fortaleza, we celebrated the title, we traveled to Recife right after. Always after a good result, there is a mental hangover and we cannot allow that to happen again. “he explained. In Sport, however, Jair Ventura will not be able to count on the right-back Patric, who started as a starter in the team’s 19 games and is suspended after being sent off on the last day. In addition, it will not have Marcão and Raul Prata injured and Barcia, who is in isolation after his wife contracted Covid-19. Sports coach Jair Ventura praised Ceará. According to him, it will be a difficult match. “He is the current champion of the Northeast Cup,” analyzed the coach.
