2008 UEFA Cup Final
On Special Pitch The
UEFA
Cup Final
between FC Zenit St. Petersburg and Rangers FC will
be played on an ingenious pitch at the City of
Manchester Stadium, the home base of Manchester
City FC. More than 20
million artificial grass fibres will protect the
natural grass ensuring that Manchester City's pitch
is in perfect shape. Lee Jackson,
Deputy Head Groundsman states: "The pitch suffered
with the bad weather during the busy winter period
but thanks largely to the Desso Grassmaster has
recovered quickly. As a Groundsman, it is an honour
for the pitch to be used as the venue for the UEFA
cup final and it is a chance to prepare a surface
that will do justice to such a prestigious
event." The stadium too
has been designed according to a unique concept. It
was built for the 2002 Commonwealth Games and was
then converted into a football stadium. |
