Cafu emphasized the importance of having training pitches with the same quality as those in the stadiums where matches will be played. He stressed that athletes need to train in environments that replicate the conditions they will encounter during games. Regardless of having advanced medical facilities, inadequate pitches with high grass or poor conditions could hinder players’ preparation.
FIFA, currently conducting inspection visits in Brazil, is likely to address this issue to ensure that all training facilities meet the required standards. The focus is on providing optimal conditions for all 32 participating teams in the World Cup, enhancing the overall experience for players and ensuring fair competition.
