Cuiabá get ready to welcome Goiás for something different than the ordinary league football: The Copa Verde Semi-finals leg 1 of 2.

It's quite the trip for Goiás when visiting Cuiabá as the cities are 800 kilometers apart.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
