This Tuesday (18), Zico participated in the program Apito Final do Neto na Band and again criticized the synthetic lawn in stadiums in Brazil. Zico maintained that the idea that the artificial turf is not beneficial for the clubs and for the Championship. For him, the lawn model is not suitable for professional competitions.

“I don't like it, and you don't need to convince me. I think the synthetic field is for naked, for draft beer, to lower costs in CT, in schools. But it's not for competition”, said Zico.

There are three clubs in Brazil that use synthetic grass, they are Palmeiras, Athletico – PR and Botafogo. For Galinho, this is not a reason for them to win at home, but he understands it as a disadvantage for the visitors. Zico even cited examples from European football.


“It's not just because of the field that they (Palmeiras, Botafogo and Athletico) win. They will win championships on the regular field because they have good teams. But the problem is the habit and the number of games that those teams that play on the synthetic field have to play”, declared the former athlete.


“Nowhere in the world, in the big football countries, Germany, France, Spain, you see synthetic grass. In my view, this is utter nonsense. For me, it's an advantage. Either everyone enters on equal terms, or not. Because you train in one condition and play in another”, added Zico.

With the departure of Alexandre Mendes, who was being investigated on suspicion of violence against women, Marcelo Salles or James Freitas will be the coaches.
