Botafogo x Atletico: the referee stops the game and will wait another 30 minutes; understand

After four interruptions due to blackouts, Botafogo and Atletico returned for the second half, but once again electrical problems got in the way. In this sense, referee Matheus Delgado chose to follow the CBF regulatory procedure. All players will remain in the locker room for 30 minutes and there will be no further interruptions. If the problem is not resolved upon return, the institution will reschedule the departure for another date.

In this sense, the entire internal part of the stadium was left without light, such as corridors, stages and bathrooms. Additionally, lighting problems affected the VAR video booth, which stopped working for much of the first half. In the two goals scored in the initial phase, VAR did not work correctly. On the pitch the players had to wait to return, which cooled down the match, which was intense and hard-fought.




In the first half, Tiquinho Soares opened the scoring with a header, after taking advantage of a corner kick from Marçal, from the left. This is the 16th goal for the Juventus number 9, top scorer in the championship, with 4 goals more than Marcos Leonardo, of Santos. However, Cuello leaves the Juventus left-back behind him and crosses low for Pablo to leave everything level.

During the break, a truck from the company responsible for electricity distribution in Rio de Janeiro tried to solve the problem. However, the break lasted more than fifteen minutes, as required by CBF regulations, and the power went out again a few minutes after the start of the second half.

Positioning of the light

According to Light, the lighting issue is the responsibility of the Nilton Santos Stadium. The company has reiterated that the problem is internal, however the spotlight seems far from normalized and continues to tilt.

Training for the fans

On Twitter, the company responsible for the train station around the stadium reported that there will be trains to take fans after the match.

As a result, extra trains will only leave after the game ends. According to the company, there will not be a fixed time, but rather a waiting time for fans to board the transport.
