São Paulo closes press conference room for interview with Abel, from Palmeiras; I understand why Palm trees

According to the report, Tricolor understood that it would receive the same treatment as it receives at Allianz Parque when playing at its competitor’s stadium. One justification lies in the interview locations.

In 2022, for example, Palm trees A room attached to the Allianz mixed zone presented with problems with the sound system and without the possibility of Sao Paulo commentary on its background. Last year, an interview with Dorival Jr. had the same problem.

Verdão claims there was no other location available for the interview, including the sign bearing the event's sponsors Palm trees They were ready and the room was prepared for the group. Everything had to be dismantled.

According to Paulista regulations, it is the host club's duty to provide a place for visitors to meet the press. The document also states that if only one press room is available, the visiting coach must use the space before the home team's coach.

After Sunday's match, Julio Casares fired back at the coach and said “there won't be any more refereeing matches in Paulistão.” The speech only served to further inflame the spirits, which had become quite heated in the locker room corridor.

According to the president of São Paulo, one of my aides Palm trees Calleri joked as he entered into a conversation with the assistant referee. Therefore, the Tricolor club prevented the Palmeiras coach from giving the interview.

Hey Palm treesIn turn, he claimed that there was a lack of respect on the part of Sao Paulo even before the confrontation began. There were reports that the loudspeaker was played loudly with the tricolor anthem being directed into the changing rooms.

Another complaint is that the lawn irrigation system was directed towards professionals who were on the sidelines and blocked part of the work.

See the memorandum issued by São Paulo:

São Paulo Football Club explains that, under reciprocity, it has made the MorumBIS mixed zone available for Sociedade Esportiva interviews. Palm trees. Whether or not the space is used is the responsibility of the visiting club.

It is worth noting that in the last match held at Allianz Parque, São Paulo had to hold the press conference in a small space attached to the mixed area of ​​the stadium, a place through which many people pass, allowing access to the stadium. Football boys' locker room, without the right to properly fix the background with sponsors.

In effect, the journalists were left sitting on the floor and without the ideal sound system to do the work of all participants.

Hey Palm trees It also manifested itself. See the official note:

“São Paulo informed us, only after Sunday's game, that there would be no room for an interview with coach Abel Ferreira – a backdrop with the club's sponsors had already been installed in the press conference room in Morumbi.

Since the home team did not offer us any alternative (not even the mixed zone), the coach's press conference was cancelled. The argument used by São Paulo (“reciprocity”) does not match the truth, because Palm treesWhen he is in charge, he always makes space to meet the opposing coach.

“We have informed the Sao Paulo Football Federation of this hostile act and hope that the necessary action will be taken.”
