Vasco v Fluminense at Maracanã, crowd to be split | OneFootball

After expressing the desire to host the first leg of the Copa do Brasil semifinal at São Januário, Vasco will likely face Fluminense at Maracanã, with the crowd equally divided (50/50) between the fans.

The information was reported by journalists Leo Lacerda and Luiz Amadeu, from the profile @NTVascainos, and indicates that both matches: the first leg on December 10 and the second leg on December 14, should be held at the stadium.

Earlier this week, Vasco's football director Admar Lopes had stated that the club would try to make São Januário available, in talks with public authorities:

“We will talk to the public authorities. At this moment, we have no decision. The decision is theirs and we will respect it. Every Vasco fan prefers to play at São Januário, and we are no exception,” said the director.

If confirmed, this scenario maintains the agreement made between Fluminense, Flamengo, and Vasco, which states that the derbies between the three clubs must be played at Maracanã, with a balanced division of fans.
