NewsColina, with information from Diogo Dantas, reported that Vasco was considering sending an official letter to Conmebol to question the choice of Piero Maza to officiate the first leg against Boca Juniors. According to the publication, the club pointed out the red card issued to Andrés Gómez and controversial decisions in Boca's previous matches in the Sudamericana. Maza, a Chilean referee, had officiated three Boca home games against Recoleta, São Paulo, and Vasco, in consecutive knockout stages. According to Vasco, there were controversies in all three matches: against Recoleta, Maza allegedly allowed Boca to take the kickoff at the beginning of both halves; against São Paulo, a red card deemed incorrect was overturned by VAR; and against Vasco, the club questioned the lack of appropriate punishment for a tackle on Andrés Gómez in the first half. The team also demanded that the refereeing of the return game be impartial. #Vasco #Arbitragem #CopaSulAmericana (translated)

The publication added that the dispute could go beyond the match against Boca Juniors and reach the conditions of the concession. #Vasco #Maracanã #Futebol (translated)

The Cruzmaltino Podcast reported that the judge Joaquim Domingos de Almeida Neto, from the Special Body of the TJRJ, reinstated the authorization for Vasco to face Boca Juniors at Maracanã on October 20 at 9:30 PM. According to the report, the decision was signed on Tuesday (13th) at 7:11 AM, and determined that Fla-Flu Serviços S.A. would make the stadium available. The podcast stated that the judge reconsidered a previous ruling that had suspended the authorization. Among the reasons, he pointed out that the prior decision was based on an outdated version of the Internal Regulations of the Court, without considering a change approved in September. The rule, according to the report, allowed the president of the Chamber to review urgent requests when the rapporteur was absent. Since the original rapporteur was on vacation and there was a deadline to inform Conmebol about the stadium, the judge recognized the competence of the president of the 23rd Chamber to grant the authorization. The Cruzmaltino Podcast also reported that public safety weighed into the decision. The magistrate reportedly considered favorable technical assessments regarding Maracanã and the potential impacts of a stadium change on policing, access, fan separation, the press, and broadcasting. The document recorded, based on information presented by Vasco, the sale of 46,014 tickets. According to the podcast, the judge assessed that any material damages to the concessionaire could be compensated, while the risks to collective safety would be harder to repair. Regarding Conmebol's deadline, the report stated that the judge rejected the argument that the request had lost its purpose. The decision reportedly noted that the initial communication occurred within the deadline, and that, according to Vasco, the entity granted a new deadline: that same day at noon. The podcast added that Flamengo x Botafogo, scheduled to take place at Maracanãzinho on the same date, should be transferred or rescheduled for a time that did not coincide with the flow of fans from the football match. It also reported that the process would continue in the Special Body, with consideration expected at the first in-person session the day before the match. #Vasco #Maracanã #Justiça (translated)
Planeta do Futebol reported that, after an unfavorable court decision, the Fla-Flu Consortium asked the court to reject a new appeal from Vasco regarding ticket sales for the match against Boca Juniors. The concessionaire stated that the club should assume the risks of having sold tickets while the injunction could still be suspended. The Consortium argued that the appeal had lost its object due to the proximity of the deadline and that it repeated already rejected arguments. It advocated for the match to be held at Nilton Santos Stadium and stated that there would still be time to reorganize the event. According to the publication, Vasco urgently requested reconsideration of the suspension and claimed that it had begun sales for Maracanã after receiving court authorization. The club argued that the capacity of Nilton Santos, which is 44,661 people, was less than the 46,014 tickets sold, which would require cancellations and refunds. It also pointed out the need to accommodate 4,000 visiting fans and maintain separation areas between the supporters. The appeal from Vasco and the statement from the Fla-Flu Consortium were awaiting analysis from Judge Suely Lopes Magalhães, reported Planeta do Futebol, based on ESPN Brazil. #Vasco #Maracanã #Futebol (translated)

The decision was granted this Friday (9), after a request from Vasco against the concessionaire's refusal, which had alleged technical issues related to the maintenance and restoration of the field. According to the publication, the magistrate considered statements from the Military Police and the Public Ministry of Rio de Janeiro, which pointed out the stadium as a preferred alternative due to structural, logistical, and operational conditions, as well as issues of safety and urban mobility. He also mentioned previous disputes between the club and the concessionaire regarding the use of the stadium. The decision also determined that the Maracanã should be offered to Vasco under commercial and operational conditions equal to those practiced for Flamengo and Fluminense, respecting legal, technical, and safety requirements. The publication stated that compliance was urgent, as Vasco needed to inform CONMEBOL by October 10 which stadium would host the match, and that the concessionaire could still present its defense. #Maracanã #Vasco #SulAmericana (translated)
