🚨 VASCO CONTESTS TECHNICAL CRITERIA OF FLA-FLU, POINTS OUT VIOLATION OF CONCESSION RULES AND CITES DECISION FROM TJRJ IN ACTION FOR MARACANÃ Vasco filed an obligation lawsuit on Wednesday (1st) with a request for urgent protective measures to try to secure the Maracanã against Boca Juniors on October 20, for the semifinal of the South American Cup. In the action, the club directly questions the technical criteria used by Fla-Flu to deny the stadium, points out unequal treatment, supports violations of concession rules, and also explores a contradiction involving the Memorandum of Understanding. 📌 WHAT FLA-FLU ALLEGED In response to Vasco, the concessionaire pointed to the accumulated wear of the lawn, the climatic conditions of July and August, and the need to preserve the intervals designated for field maintenance. For 10/20, Fla-Flu specifically mentioned games of Fluminense on 10/18 and Flamengo on 10/22. With Vasco x Boca between these matches, there would be three games in five days. According to the concessionaire, this sequence would prevent procedures such as helical mowing, targeted fertilization, supplemental lighting, and repair of damage to the lawn. 📌 VASCO QUESTIONS THE TECHNICAL JUSTIFICATION The first counterpoint is the lawn itself. Vasco highlights that, three days after the denial, it was announced that the existing field would be removed and new Bermuda Celebration rolls would be placed, with the return of football scheduled for 10/08. Vasco x Boca will be on 10/20. The club's thesis is that it would not be possible to use the accumulated wear of the old lawn as justification for a match that will take place 12 days after the return of football to the renewed field. 📌 GREENLEAF DOCUMENT IS USED BY VASCO Vasco also retrieves the technical planning prepared by Greenleaf, the company responsible for lawn maintenance, in August. According to the action, the document shows that the same procedures cited by Fla-Flu to deny Vasco x Boca have already been carried out in a concentrated manner between matches. The petition states that helical mowing, targeted fertilization, supplemental lighting, and damage repair have even been grouped in a single day after a match, even in a winter scenario and lawn wear. The question posed by Vasco is direct: if this work could be done in August to accommodate the sequence of games from Flamengo and Fluminense, why couldn't it be repeated in October, after the complete lawn replacement? 📌 INTERVAL BETWEEN GAMES Vasco also contests the argument of three games in five days by comparing the situation with the recent calendar of the Maracanã. The action argues that sequences with reduced intervals for Flamengo and Fluminense matches have already been admitted. For Vasco, if the necessary interval for lawn recovery is decisive for denying a match, that criterion must be applied equally to all clubs. 📌 SHOWS AND OTHER EVENTS The action also points out that the Maracanã hosts shows, religious gatherings, and events from other sports, including the installation of structures and occupancy of the field area. Vasco questions how the administration can reconcile these events with lawn preservation, yet considers it technically unfeasible to host a semifinal of CONMEBOL. According to the data presented in the action, at least seven extraordinary events unrelated to official football were held between 2025 and 09/30/2026. 📌 CONCESSION NOTICE Vasco cites item 3.4 of the Terms of Reference, which gives priority to football events from the official calendars of FIFA, CONMEBOL, CBF, and FERJ over other events. Vasco x Boca is an official semifinal of CONMEBOL. The action argues that there would be an "inversion of this priority" by accommodating shows and other events and denying the stadium for a match that, under the concession rules cited by the club, should have priority. The petition mentions "distortion of the concessionaire's obligations" and "violation of the equal treatment required by the Concession Notice." 📌 UNEQUAL TREATMENT Vasco summarizes its challenge in four points: • the lawn replacement would change the premise of accumulated wear; • Greenleaf's own planning would demonstrate that maintenance could be carried out between matches; • the calendar would show reduced intervals that have already been admitted for Flamengo and Fluminense; • other events are reconciled with the necessary care for field preservation. As a result, Vasco asserts that restrictions are being applied selectively. The action further cites clause 13.2 of the Concession Contract, which prohibits favoritism and unjustifiably different, discriminatory treatment, or "without technical criteria" that results in restricted access to the Complex. 📌 THE CONTRADICTION POINTED OUT BY VASCO Fla-Flu claims not to recognize the validity of the Memorandum of Understanding signed in 2025. At the same time, according to Vasco, it uses the document itself—especially the provision for four matches conditioned on availability and operational conditions—to justify the denial. Vasco points out contradictory behavior and invokes the principle of good faith. 📌 PREVIOUS DECISION OF TJRJ The action also cites the Instrument Appeal No. 3023517-70.2026.8.19.0000. On that occasion, Justice Alexandre Freitas Câmara analyzed the discussion regarding the absence of Fla-Flu's signature on the Memorandum. The magistrate stated that Flamengo and Fluminense, members of the concessionaire, had signed the document and pointed out that disregarding it later could represent contradictory behavior contrary to good faith. 📌 RECOMMENDATION FROM BEPE The issue of public safety also appears as an argument for the use of the Maracanã. According to the action, BEPE (Specialized Battalion for Policing in Stadiums) recommended holding the match at the Maracanã due to the magnitude of the confrontation and the expected public turnout. Vasco uses this recommendation to argue that the Maracanã is not just a preference of the club. The petition points to the stadium as the option that best meets capacity, location, structure, security, and operational conditions to host the match against Boca. 📌 SÃO JANUÁRIO IS NOT AN OPTION Vasco also differentiates the situation from the previous process involving Vasco x Vitória, when it did not obtain a preliminary injunction to use the Maracanã. This time, according to the action, São Januário cannot host the semifinal. The South American Manual requires a minimum capacity of 30,000 spectators starting from the semifinals, while the petition indicates São Januário has approximately 21,880 seats. Vasco acknowledges the Nilton Santos Stadium as an alternative but argues that having another stadium does not resolve the issue brought to Justice: is there legitimate technical and contractual basis for Fla-Flu to deny Maracanã? 📌 WHAT VASCO SEEKS Vasco is seeking a preliminary injunction requiring Fla-Flu to make the Maracanã available for Vasco x Boca on 10/20 at 9:30 PM. The request includes the maximum ticket allocation corresponding to the authorized capacity, the use of necessary facilities for organizing the match, the implementation of a mosaic, and temporary installation of banners in the same manner allowed for the clubs that are members of the concessionaire. In case of non-compliance, Vasco requests a daily fine of R$ 1 million. Vasco must inform CONMEBOL by October 5 where it will hold the return match of the semifinal. (translated)

Do you know the common point between @nicolas_richoux and @AurelienDuchene? In 4 years of war, they have made a name for themselves on Ukraine on television, but they have never had the decency to go share the life of Ukrainians, to support them on the ground (a visit to a drone factory for Duchene... lol), to see the soldiers on the front, to talk to the inhabitants, to visit the hospitals. Oh, it’s certain, such an approach presents some risks… They are safe in the rear. They know nothing of the war except the images shown to them on screen with their butts glued to a stool. For them, war is limited to commenting on a football match. (translated)

Bravo to Les Échos for its most comical headline on the topic of debt: "The increase in indebtedness promises to be at the heart of the presidential debates while Jean-Luc Mélenchon proposes to cancel the debt." One can gauge the intellectual level of the readers that the editorial team believes capable of believing such a summary at the cost of 5 euros for the newspaper... (translated)

🚨 ANDY DIOUF EN ARRIÈRE GAUCHE : ZIDANE RELANCE UNE VIEILLE TRADITION DES BLEUS ! 🇫🇷🔄 En alignant le milieu de terrain (déjà transformé en piston droit à l'Inter Milan) au poste de latéral gauche face à la Belgique, Zinédine Zidane tente un coup osé. Mais dans l'histoire de l'équipe de France, reculer des milieux d'un cran a connu des fortunes diverses ! Les réussites : Eduardo Camavinga (véritable couteau suisse depuis le Mondial 2022), le match d'anthologie de Lassana Diarra face à l'Italie en 2007, ou encore Christian Karembeu. ✅ Les galères : Le replacement d'Adrien Rabiot face à la Suisse à l'Euro 2021 ou encore l'expérience écourtée de Luis Fernandez à l'Euro 84, qui manquait de discipline défensive. ❌ Aimé Jacquet avait tenté ce même pari avec Alain Boghossian avant la Coupe du Monde. Son débriefing de l'époque résume cependant le piège qui guette un milieu replacé derrière : 🗣️ « Tactiquement, il a été excellent. C'est dans la relance qu'il a pêché. Comme il est milieu, il cherche toujours la passe décisive au lieu d'assurer une relance plus propre et plus simple. » 🗞️ @lequipe #EquipeDeFrance #Zidane #Football

La confrontation entre Iran et États Unis se résume toujours à une question: qui acceptera de souffrir plus longtemps que l’autre ? Mais les termes en ont changé du fait de la perte partielle par le premier du contrôle du détroit d’Ormuz et de l’efficacité du blocus américain. #Iran #ÉtatsUnis #DétroitDOrmuz #IR #US

~ Aeon ★ Aha ~ Salió al fin la beta de nuestra pimera Eón jugable ~ Está... llena de cosas, 3 talentos, pasiva global, buffos personalizados, etc, por eso la imagen quedó tan repleta de texto (≧▽≦) Pero en resumen, ella se dedica bastante a hacer daño con su propio kit, tiene también algunos buffos generosos al equipo pero nada muy loco, y casi todos los buffos personalizados que nos leakearon son como... menos de lo que creíamos, aunque siguen estando bien Es muy similar a Cyrene en ese aspecto (Para mi Cyrene también fue una Eón durante la pelea contra Irontomb >: ) Interactúa con Aha tal como nos leakearon, ocurre un aha instant al inicio de la pelea gracias a su técnica y luego la spd base de Aha será la que tenga Nihilux ~ Muchas pero muchas cosas, si tienen dudas avisen, pero dejen de lado las preguntas sobre si deben tirar ya a por el personaje que salió ayer porque ESTO ES UNA BETA y todavía necesito confirmar que lo que estoy leyendo lo entiendo bien XD #Eón #Beta #Videojuegos
