The manager added: “Now, I consider it absurd, inadmissible, we are going to have a huge loss on the pitch for a decision that didn’t put everything I’m telling you about. Never Botafogo and Vasco were banned from playing at Maracanã, but the concession contract is very clear, the permission to use is very clear, the priority is for the clubs that manage the stadium and that have their schedule to play in the stadium”.
Bittencourt also reinforced that his statements were not fueled by the rivalry between the clubs. “Fluminense has touched on its project, its work, and we don’t mind that something we are doing ends up in the benefit of a rival, an adversary, we are not enemies. We only regret that we are not seen, in some situations, in the same way, but anyway, it is a matter that is in the courts, contractual”he stressed.
