The achievement was confirmed last Saturday (1st), when Americano beat Resende at the Ary de Oliveira e Souza Stadium, in Campos dos Goytacazes, guaranteeing the Series A2 title and returning to the elite of the Carioca Championship. For Renato Valentim, access is the result of planning started last year and perfected throughout the season. "We took over Americano last year, we planned and hoped to have the success that came this year. Unfortunately, it didn't happen. We learned from some situations that we needed to improve. For this year, we had more time to plan. Last year we took over the club a month before the start of the competition. This time we had a longer period to prepare the team and what happened at the end happened." Despite the celebratory atmosphere, the manager stated that work for the next season has already begun. "The celebration has to be on the day of the game. We still had this moment of fraternization together with the club's coaching staff, players and professionals. But, on Monday, we already had several meetings during the day to start planning for next year." According to Renato, the objective now is to assemble a competitive team to compete in Series A of the Carioca Championship, a competition that Americano will compete in again in 2027.
