The Baltimore Ravens and Dallas Cowboys remain set to meet in Rio de Janeiro next Sunday, with eight days until the game. The matchup is still planned for Maracanã Stadium, although the condition of the field has drawn attention.

Agustín Rossi, Flamengo’s goalkeeper, recently spoke critically about the surface. Rossi said it has bumps across it and voiced hope that improvements would be made before the football game. The Cowboys remain designated as the home team, while the Ravens remain the road team. It has not been determined whether the field will be better by kickoff.

Dallas will play Washington on Sunday at 4:25 p.m. ET before traveling to Brazil. Baltimore’s game against New Orleans is set for 1 p.m. ET Sunday. The information was reported by sports.yahoo.com on Sept. 19, 2026.
