The joint management of Flamengo and Fluminense at Maracanã, assumed in 2019, now faces an unprecedented challenge in relation to the state of the legendary stadium's pitch. For the first time since the Fla-Flu duo took the reins, three consecutive games are scheduled on three different days. The condition of the field, a crucial element for the good performance of the athletes, has become an obvious concern, since the ideal time for the pitch to rest between matches is at least three days.

The information, released by @ itatiaiaesporte, highlights the importance of ensuring adequate recovery of the field, essential to ensure ideal playing conditions. Maracanã, the scene of countless historic moments in Brazilian football, needs to face the intensified demand for matches in short periods of time.

The critical scenario emerges especially after matches are held on consecutive days. Lawn care, often underestimated, is a fundamental part of avoiding injuries and ensuring a quality spectacle for fans. In modern football, where intensity and speed are striking characteristics, the condition of the field cannot be underestimated.


After today's game, attention turns to the next challenge, scheduled for this Saturday at 9pm, involving Fluminense and Coritiba. The sequence of consecutive matches adds pressure to the need to restore the pitch, making the work of the team responsible for maintaining the stadium even more crucial. The effort to deliver a field in ideal conditions for athletes must be reconciled with the incessant demand for high-level sporting events.


The shared management of Maracanã, since its inception, sought to optimize the fans' experience and the quality of the matches. Holding three games in three days challenges this search for excellence, highlighting the need for efficient pitch recovery strategies. The partnership between Flamengo and Fluminense, which aims not only at sporting success but also at enhancing the spectacle, needs to overcome this new agenda challenge.

The Maracanã lawn, more than a simple green carpet, represents the stage where the magic of football unfolds. It's the battlefield where skilled players weave memorable plays and achieve epic victories. Ensuring that this stage is in ideal conditions is a responsibility shared by everyone involved, from the stadium managers to the players who step on it.


Amid the intense sporting schedule, the concern about the Maracanã pitch for the clash between Flamengo and Red Bull Bragantino becomes an additional chapter in the history of this iconic stadium. The ability to overcome challenges and maintain excellence amid a hectic schedule will be further proof of the competence of the joint management of Flamengo and Fluminense, reinforcing the commitment to preserving the Maracanã legacy and delivering unforgettable experiences for fans.< /p>

In a recently filed document, the Maracanã Para Todos Consortium questioned Flamengo's ability to guarantee its permanence in the stadium in the face of possible investments in a new arena. Referring to the possible plans of Flamengo in building a stadium close to Gasologista, the Vasco consortium expressed concern about the direct competition that this would represent for Maracanã in terms of events and games.

The clash between the consortia gains prominence on the eve of the final analysis of resources and defenses by the Special Bidding Committee, which has until Wednesday to decide on the technical notes and open the envelopes with the financial proposals.


< b>FLAMENGO OPENS THE GAME ON THE SITUATION

At the center of the impasse is the allegation of the Fla-Flu Consortium that Vasco would not be able to guarantee the minimum 25 annual games at Maracanã, based on the Vasco SAF statute, which prioritizes São Januário as field command location. In response, the Maracanã Para Todos Consortium contests this interpretation, arguing that such criteria can be adjusted as necessary and that this limitation should not be applied at this point in the bidding process.

The clash highlights the consortia's strategies to gain an advantage in the competition for the iconic Rio stadium. While Consórcio Fla-Flu achieved an impressive score of 117 points in the previous technical assessment, Consórcio Maracanã Para Todos obtained 81 points, leaving it at a disadvantage in the current count.


It is important to highlight that the consortium led pelo Flamengo received the maximum score in terms of guaranteeing games, ensuring 70 annual matches at the stadium. On the other hand, Vasco da Gama received only five points in this criterion, after the commission disregarded the inclusion of games from other teams as part of the guarantee offered.
