While the ball doesn’t roll again in official competitions, Vitória is taking advantage of the time without games to modernize its structure. To accelerate changes at Barradão, Leão launched an online fundraiser in which fans can contribute any amount.

“The amount raised will be used for part of the new fences and new lighting at Barradão, including the exchange of the fence for acrylic, a requirement for our participation in the Sul-Americana, in addition to the implementation of LED lighting, aiming to modernize our stadium “, explains Vitória on social media.
