Moscow's Champions League pitch is replaced
By Jeremy Wilson
A major doubt has emerged over the playing surface for the Champions League final.
Organisers spent nine months growing a grass pitch to replace the artificial surface at Moscow's Luzhniki Stadium but, shortly after installing it, experts decided that it was too bumpy.
A second grass pitch has been imported from Slovakia, at a cost of £160,000, and laid down instead.
