In addition, 60 free passes will be granted at Maracanãzinho, which is part of the sports complex.

The ban on vetoing games from other clubs is an important step to guarantee Maracanã's impartiality and accessibility to all football lovers. This prevents the stadium from being used as a bargaining chip in sporting rivalries.
The free fees established for the Government seek to ensure that access to Maracanã is not restricted to commercial sectors only. The full buffet and tickets for Maracanãzinho demonstrate the commitment to sport in its various manifestations. The ban on changing the stadium's colors is a gesture of respect for Maracanã's history and identity. The green and yellow colors are emblematic, and preserving this aspect is essential to maintain its authenticity.

This ensures that Maracanã remains fully operational and in ideal conditions to host sporting and cultural events. In short, the obligations imposed by the Government in the Maracanã concession notice are a reflection of the commitment to preserving Brazil's sporting and cultural heritage. They ensure that Maracanã continues to be a symbol of Brazilian sport and a meeting place for fans of all teams.

The information I have, a club director told me, is that there is a good chance that he will no longer play for Flamengo. He will not renew, the atmosphere is not good, Gabigol is totally unmotivated, even more so after seeing that he is behind Carlinhos in the queue, the atmosphere is terrible”, said Venê Casagrande on his YouTube channel.

Flamengo and Grêmio face each other again this Sunday (22) for the Brazilian Championship, in a match that promises to be hot. The recent history between the two teams shows a clear advantage for Flamengo, which wants to maintain its superiority and increase the so-called "freguesia" over its rival from Rio Grande do Sul.
In recent seasons, Flamengo has had the better of most of the clashes against Grêmio, especially in decisive moments. Victories in important competitions, such as Copa do Brasil and Libertadores, strengthened this narrative. Among fans, the term “freguesia” began to be used recurrently to describe Flamengo's sequence of triumphs over the Gauchos.
Grêmio, despite being one of the biggest clubs in Brazilian football , has suffered at the hands of the Rio team, especially in knockout clashes and important games. Since the arrival of Jorge Jesus in 2019, Flamengo has become one of the most feared teams in the country, winning important titles and maintaining regularity at a high level. Grêmio, on the other hand, had ups and downs and was unable to follow the same evolution.
This Sunday's duel promises to be another chapter in this story. Playing at home, Grêmio will try to reverse their recent record and seek a victory that can serve as redemption. Flamengo , even playing away from home, enters the field confident, knowing that the pressure is more on the opponent's shoulders.
Currently, Flamengo continues to seek to consolidate itself among the top placed teams in the Brasileirão, while the Grêmio struggles to remain competitive. For the Rio team, a victory in the South would be another opportunity to strengthen its dominance over the opponent, in addition to adding three important points in the title race. For Grêmio, beating Flamengo would be the chance to reverse this "parish" and show that it is still capable of competing on equal terms with the giants of national football.
