“At first it was a request from me. Today it came from them. At a given time they will speak up,” said Tite, explaining the significant absence of captain Casemiro (Real Madrid) at the press conference the day before the Eliminatorias match against Ecuador in Porto Alegre.
In addition to Rio de Janeiro with the world-famous Maracana, other arenas of the 2014 World Cup and Goiania are planned as venues for the Copa (June 13th to July 11th) in the capital Brasilia and Cuiaba. Spectators are not allowed in the stadiums.
