The Planet of Football reported that a judge from Rio de Janeiro denied, on the 6th, an appeal from Vasco to play against Boca Juniors at the Maracanã. According to the publication, the decision could still be changed until Saturday, the deadline for the club to indicate the location to Conmebol. The judge reportedly considered a more in-depth analysis of the evidence regarding the pitch, the calendar, and the operation necessary, in addition to requesting a response from the Fla-Flu Consortium. Vasco claimed unequal treatment and selective application of criteria, according to the post. The publication added that the Public Ministry recommended the use of the Maracanã, but the judge considered the recommendation non-binding for the Fla-Flu Consortium and insufficient to replace the contractual, technical, and operational assessments. #Vasco #Maracanã #BocaJuniors (translated)
