Vasco tries to keep Maracanã for duel with Boca Juniors and points out problems with Nilton Santos' capacity
Cruz-Maltino cites 46,014 tickets sold and points out logistical problems if the Sul-Americana semi-final is transferred.
TL;DR
- Vasco is legally challenging a decision that suspended authorization to use the Maracanã for their match against Boca Juniors.
- The club has already sold 46,014 tickets and argues that moving the venue would cause significant disruption to fans.
- The Nilton Santos stadium, an alternative, has a lower capacity than the number of tickets sold.
- Vasco also cited potential problems with organizing visiting fans, security, and media coverage if the venue is changed.
- A previous court order allowing the Maracanã had been suspended following an appeal related to security and another event at the complex.
