Conmebol semi-finalists' meeting has Fluminense chiefs, no Palmeiras | OneFootball

Meeting called by Conmebol addressed logistics for the final stretch of the tournament; the issue of away fans’ tickets was also discussed

Palmeiras did not take part in the meeting held by Conmebol with the Conmebol Libertadores semifinalists. The São Paulo club sent vice president Paulo Buosi and manager Leonardo Holanda to the venue, but both were barred from entering the meeting because the South American body’s invitation was strictly personal and addressed to president Leila Pereira, who was unable to travel due to the flu.

According to journalist Pedro Brandão, the meeting was organized to align logistical details for the semifinals and the grand final of the continental competition. The deadlock over the allocation of away tickets for the clash between Palmeiras and Fluminense was not on the agenda, since the matter had already been settled with a guarantee of 4,000 tickets for each set of fans in the first and second legs.

Representing Fluminense at the official meeting were president Mattheus Montenegro, vice president Ricardo Tenório, and general director Mário Bittencourt.
