The Dallas Cowboys and Baltimore Ravens are scheduled to meet in Rio de Janeiro next Sunday for a Week 3 game, with concerns raised about the playing surface at Maracanã Stadium.

Agustín Rossi, a goalkeeper for Flamengo, recently criticized the condition of the field. He said the surface has bumps throughout and expressed hope that it will be in better shape when the NFL game is played.

The matchup remained scheduled for the stadium at the time of the report, which was published eight days before the game. Dallas is designated as the home team, while Baltimore is designated as the visiting team.

The Cowboys will play the Washington Commanders before the Rio matchup, while the Ravens are scheduled to face the New Orleans Saints. Dallas' game is set for 4:25 p.m. Eastern time, and Baltimore's game is scheduled for 1 p.m. Eastern time.
