Arsenal have lodged a formal complaint with UEFA regarding the pitch conditions at Atletico Madrid’s stadium ahead of their Champions League semi-final.
Details: According to Guillem Balague, tensions have arisen between the clubs as Arsenal’s technical staff expressed significant concerns over the length of the grass at the venue. They believe that the state of the pitch may adversely impact the quality of play during the match.
In response, Arsenal representatives have requested UEFA to conduct an unscheduled inspection of the field this afternoon. The outcome of this request is awaited from UEFA delegates.
The match is set to begin today, April 29, at 21:00 Central European Time. Adverse weather conditions are anticipated in Madrid during the Champions League semi-final.
