The main gate to Clube Atletico Bragantino’s Estadio Nabi Abi Chedid, guarded by the club’s traditional lion symbol. An exciting Saturday afternoon out might involve strolling around the lake in town observing the capybaras, which, if you’re not familiar with capybaras, are sort of docile, pitbull-sized, semi-aquatic hamsters. Not from around here, either.īraganca Paulista is a quiet place, famous for its sausages and, well, just the sausages really. “They”, the cabbie said: “They’re going to build a new arena.” But who were they? They were new, that’s for sure. Being in Serie A will also bring people to watch the games.” The jobs are only temporary, but it will boost the economy, it will help restaurant owners and taxi drivers. “Football isn’t my sport, but people need something to adore,” he said. But most of all he was happy for the city. He was happy for her and the club and the other fans. She was at the game, he said, working in the ticket office like she always had. Yet as we drove to the coach station, he told me that he’d never been an avid Bragantino supporter. Like the people on the streets, he seemed delighted.

I waved to a taxi driver as he squinted to spot me through the rain. Except it wouldn’t be Clube Atletico Bragantino playing in the 2020 Serie A. Inside the Nabi Abi Chedid an hour or so prior, those people had watched on as the captain of their team, Clube Atletico Bragantino, thrust the Campeonato Brasileiro Serie B trophy into the air, cutting through the rain that teemed from the heavens.įrom the start of 2020, Braganca Paulista, a city of 170,000 people an hour’s drive from São Paulo, was set to have its team in Brazil’s top flight for the first time since 1998. Rainwater gushed down the potholed streets outside the angular, idiosyncratic main stand of Estadio Nabi Abi Chedid, an overhanging, unsteady looking pile of steel girders, bare bricks and mismatched colours.ĭespite being soaked to the bone, people still milled around on streets that bubbled with the warm glow of returning glories. As might be expected for the time of year, the burning sun had given way to a tropical deluge in the late afternoon. It was November 16, 2019, and dusk had fallen on a late spring day in Braganca Paulista.
