Colo Colo lives his first days of preseason in Uruguay with intensity. The Cacique works in double shifts preparing his first friendly matches of the year, against Rosario Central, Liverpool and Nacional, in which the stamp of the recently arrived Jorge Almirón as coach can be seen a little.
Cacique’s objective is clear: to arrive well prepared for the first official match of the year, on Sunday, February 11, against Huachipato for the Chilean Super Cup. However, the big objective at the beginning of this season is only one: getting into the group stage of the Copa Libertadores.
Massive capacity for Colo Colo in Mendoza
And it won’t be easy. Colo Colo must face Godoy Cruz, one of the sensational teams in Argentina during 2023 and which will play in the Copa Libertadores for the first time in five years. The people of Mendoza have prepared everything for that match, hiring eight reinforcements.
A match that, at least in its first leg, is already beginning to take shape. This Friday and as reported by Cooperativa, Godoy Cruz announced the massive capacity that will allow Colocolinos fans at the Malvinas Argentinas stadium. There will be 9 thousand tickets on sale for Cacique fans.
This is an amount that far exceeds the minimum allowed by Conmebol for this type of match. The South American entity indicates that there must be at least 2,000 visiting fans at Copa Libertadores matches.
This means that, considering that the Mendoza stadium has a capacity of 42 thousand people, more than a quarter of the stadium will be filled with Cacique fans, who will surely go en masse to the neighboring city to support Jorge Almirón’s team.
In any case, this is a figure that may increase if one considers that in the past the University of Chile brought 14,000 fans to that stadium in a Copa Libertadores match. Of course, this was a time in which Conmebol was much less strict regarding capacity.
What is not in doubt is that in addition to those who attend the stadium, the Argentine city will experience a true Colocolina revolution in the run-up to the match since it is estimated that a much larger number of fans will cross the mountain range to try to get a ticket.
Colo Colo fans will attend the Copa Libertadores en masse
A key that will be experienced with a classic atmosphere and that, if Colo Colo passes, would ensure at least a place in the Copa Sudamericana, although Blanco y Negro’s objective is to get back into the group stage of the Copa Libertadores and from there try to get back into the round of 16.
To achieve this, it seems key that the reinforcement issue begins to be resolved as soon as possible. For now, Colo Colo is still blocked by FIFA from being able to make contracts, although it is already anticipated that from Monday the 15th it could be enabled to do so again.
