Conmebol responded to Cerro Porteño’s controversial tactic of narrowing their pitch by four meters prior to their match against Palmeiras, requiring all teams in the Libertadores and Sudamericana to confirm their field dimensions by Monday at 2 p.m. (Asunción time). The accepted dimensions must align with Conmebol’s guidelines, which specify a standard size of 105m x 68m. Palmeiras noticed the alteration immediately upon arrival, prompting strong criticism from their coach, Abel Ferreira.
