stage Atlético-MG x Botafogo next Saturday (16/9), the Arena MRV there is still part of the field without lawn in new images released this Wednesday (13) by the “Itatiaia” portal.
Part of the lawn needed to be replanted, and the grass mats were only installed in one section, at the height of the penalty area line. Other parts of the lawn look bad.
The MRV Arena hosted shows by Ivete Sangalo, Jorge & Mateus and Clayton & Romário last Wednesday (6) and by Jota Quest and Maroon 5 on Saturday (9), but the stadium guarantees that the change of pitch was already planned this FIFA date break.
“Following the lawn treatment schedule at Arena MRV, an area of 2,500 m² is being replaced with a view to the match against Botafogo. The procedure was already planned a few weeks ago to take place during the FIFA date period”, published the arena’s profile on social media.
Atlético-MG managed to increase capacity to 39 thousand people, but only 1,000 tickets will be allocated to visitors. Botafogo fans can buy tickets from 4pm this Wednesday, at R$300 (full) and R$150 (half), via the website ingressos.galonaveia.com.br.
