The Itaquerão should get another test event for the World Cup, the match between Corinthians and Cruzeiro, on 29 May, at 16 hours. The request was made on Monday to CBF, Fifa and the LOC, and the trend is that the entity accepted stir in the Fifa ultimate team coins Championship table. The amendment was being negotiated in this second night with the mining and TV Globo team.

One of the main objectives to seek the fulfillment of another game at the stadium is to test the temporary bleachers, which then in the final stages of completion. Tests of premises will be finalized on the 27th, but the ideal would be to observe the functioning of the sector, especially in relation to security, in an official match.

The initiative to try to make another game in the stadium was taken on the morning of Monday at a meeting of the General Secretary of FIFA, Jerome Valcke, with representatives of the local organizing committee and the club held in the Corinthians Arena. The manager came to Brazil and went straight to the site, for details of the event-test done on Sunday.

Valcke considered positive balance. But he was bothered by the enthusiasm of the organizers of Corinthians v Figueirense. So we decided to "cool climate" and made clear that there is still much to be done so that the stadium can get satisfactory match between Brazil and Croatia, on 12 June.

The ruling made public its position through Twitter. "A test event does not compare in scale, and needs global attention to the opening of Copa2014" he wrote. "The Arena of São Paulo still need 100% commitment from everyone to ensure the necessary structure for the opening, a match that will attract 65,000 people in the stadium and on TV 1 billion."

In addition, on June 12 the stadium, which had last Sunday crowd of just over 36,000 people receive foreign fans, at least four times more journalists (on Sunday were 517 accredited) and, especially, dozens of heads of State.

As the message was the same for meeting participants - including the CEO of the Organizing Committee, Ricardo Trade, and responsible for the project, Andres Sanchez -, we started to think about performing new test event. Initially, the target was the game against Botafogo Corinthians in 1. º June. But as would be reversal of command, the idea was aborted.

Then we started to work the possibility of the game against Cruzeiro, the eighth round, originally scheduled for the 28th, a Wednesday, at 22 am, at Caninde stadium. Would play on network television (for Brazil), so the need for consistency of Globe. Sources of the report believe that no problem, although it also has to be negotiated putting another game in the grid.

Performing the afternoon game has two other strong reasons: the time is close to the opening game (17 hours) and the need to test the layout of traffic - congestion on access to Itaquerão were the biggest problem found on Sunday.

Valcke also gave several instructions for the operation of Itaquerão - that will go to the administration of FIFA on Wednesday. Want utmost dedication so that they make the necessary adjustments of all problems encountered yesterday, for minors who have been.
