Miguel Araujo: FC Emmen won 2-0 against Jong Utrecht and is still in the area of direct promotion to eight dates in the final

Miguel Araujo is one of the best Peruvian footballers abroad this season. The central defender is a key player in the excellent campaign that FC Emmen is having in the Eerste Divisie (second division of the Netherlands) and is close to fulfilling the goal of returning to the first category. This Friday they won a new victory and are eight dates away from being consecrated. In addition, he was called by Ricardo Gareca for the last double date of the Peruvian national team in Qatar 2022 Qualifiers.

With the 2-0 win over Jong Utrecht, his team scored 61 points with 29 matches played (he has one less match) and is in second place in the standings, two behind the leader FC Volendam, who is precisely the team with which he will play the game pending on the 27th date of the Dutch tournament. Both squads will meet this Monday, March 14, and the one who won will be the leader to date 31.

After their pending match, the team founded in 1925 will play eight remaining games and will know whether they will be promoted directly to the Eredivisie for the 2022-23 season. Remember that the team relegated in the last season after failing to overcome the repechage and ExAlianza Lima took the squad on the basis of commitment to return them to the first category.

ARAUJO CALLED TO THE PERUVIAN NATIONAL TEAM

Miguel Araujo is one of the five central defenders that Ricardo Gareca called for the double date of the South American Qualifiers heading to Qatar 2022. Despite not being the starter for the 'Tigre', it is always ready when the Argentine strategist requires it. In these qualifiers he was called for 10 commitments, but he only participated in three commitments: against Brazil, Chile and Colombia.

His last participation was against the 'coffee growers' in Barranquilla, entering 25 minutes after the end of the engagement at the Metropolitano Stadium in Barranquilla. Now, against Uruguay and Paraguay, he hopes to have more minutes in what will define the pass of the 'blanquirroja' to the biggest event in football.

MIGUEL ARAUJO VOTED THE BEST OF 2021 BY FC EMMEN

Miguel Araujo has been doing a great job at FC Emmen. After relegating in the last season, the central defender decided to stay with the team and now struggles to return to the first division. His presence in the Dutch club is one of the best and the managers are not planning to let him go. A few days ago he was renamed the best footballer of the team in 2021 and received the award with his family.
