The president of the CBF’s Refereeing Working Group, Raimundo Góes Netto, highlighted the structure provided by the Corinthians stadium during the process. “The implementation of semi-automatic offside at Neo Química Arena demonstrates the high level of infrastructure we now have in some of the main football stadiums in Brazil. I congratulate the arena’s excellent infrastructure and thank the Corinthians technical staff for their collaboration and speed in implementing this technology, which represents an important advance for refereeing and for the credibility of the competitions organized by the CBF.”

The Neo Química Arena is one of the first stadiums in the country to undergo this procedure. Other arenas will also receive the system in the coming weeks until the technology is ready for use in matches organized by the entity.
