Now the size of the problem will be effectively measured when the CBF fulfills the task of defining what the 2025 calendar will be like.

< Will everything stop during the World Cup? Will you preserve, even partially, the FIFA dates? How big are the States? The fact is that the year will not have more than 365 days.
