Flamengo and Botafogo new home for this year.

[Mengo]

While Maracana will be closed for restauration (for the PanAmerican Games 2007), Flamengo and Botafogo joined forces to find a new place to host their games this year. It's called Luso-Brasileiro Stadium an is located at Ilha do Governador, suburb of Rio. Aparently it will have 30.000 people capacity, when ready.
They have a website (in Portuguese) to explain this project:
