00:00Hey everyone, we're here at Neo Química Arena after yesterday's game against Atlético Paranaense.
00:06to provide fair and necessary explanations to the fans and the media as a whole.
00:09Despite the poor performance of the pitch, it is recognized that the pitch is not up to ideal standards.
00:15The grass in the first half of the year was slippery; there was a kind of moss underneath the turf.
00:20and it needed replacing, which hadn't been done for several years.
00:23the company that has been taking care of the lawn since the creation of Neo Química Arena
00:27There's an office here, agronomists, equipment.
00:30He understood that the best time to do it was now, in winter.
00:33because this grass is a winter grass.
00:35The grass was replaced and completely remodeled.
00:39And it was expected that this would happen upon the return of the games, specifically in the match against Remo.
00:42the grass would perform better
00:44Unfortunately, it didn't happen; grass is a living organism, and the expected evolution didn't occur.
00:49And we had this problem mainly in the game against Atlético Paranaense.
00:53So we came here today to talk to the company, to demand something from the company.
00:56A solution was found, and they acknowledged the mistake, they recognized that things didn't go as planned.
01:01And there was a general commitment here from the Arena management, the company, and the club's football operations.
01:07of a task force over the next six days
01:10so that the pitch will be in better condition by the time of the game against Internacional.
01:13is already in improved condition and is pursuing continuous improvement.
01:17until the Neo Química Arena's pitch returns to being the best pitch in Brazil, as it always was.
01:22We acknowledge that there was a problem.
01:24The plan initially drawn up by the company did not unfold as needed.
01:28We in the football world were also caught by surprise, so to speak.
01:31because that wasn't the expectation.
01:33And here, joining hands, acknowledging the situation and seeking a solution.
01:38So that the pitch will be in better condition for the game against Internacional.
01:41And over the next few games, we'll get back to the pitch we've always been on.
01:44The spectacle on the lawn is what we want.
01:47And that's how we're going to work together with the company and the management of Neoquímica Arena.
