We can see that the São Paulo team has a very high level of play. And at Palmeiras, São Paulo has played there many times and sometimes with good success. Because our team has a very high price and we need a good pitch for it. So this Palmeiras field is not completely synthetic, it is mixed, it is fast. The way Rogério (Ceni) likes it, fast bowling, good bowling. That's why it was the choice - he told 'TNT Sports'. - Of course it is also a stadium, it is very good, accommodation, a place to go. All of this matters, but what interested us most, and obviously we need to talk to the coaching staff, was the playing surface. Very important for us – added the coordinator. In an interview with 'TV Bandeirantes', Ceni also said that the choice of the rival stadium was to facilitate access for fans. - The main benefit is the arrival of fan groups, as 40 thousand people can, even if it's Monday. But being a very central place, a little earlier, at eleven at night, I think we have the strength of our fans, which has been the base - said the São Paulo coach. > Fixed Paulistão quarter-finals: check games, dates and times Follow Lance!
