| The matches in South Africa (football, WC 2010) will be played on patented Dutch grass, provided by Desso from Holland. It's a mixture of artificial and real grass, as can be seen on the Arsenal football pitch in England already. The biggest advantage is that teams score more on this mixed grass. Every football field will cost appr. 350.000 Euros. |

=> That'll only happen on the Dutch half when the feared Dutch will play England (mainly on the British half)... |

=> New rule: one half will last 90 minutes and the second half won't be played. Don't tell the England team. Well, they wouldn't understand it anyway... |

| Hans,
If I understand correctly the following article, the grass is not Dutch but from BELGIUM...! Is Dendermonde in Holland?
Belgisch gras op WK voetbal in Zuid-Afrika
vrijdag 02 april 2010Auteur: (BLG) DENDERMONDE - Voor het eerst wordt een wereldkampioenschap voetbal gespeeld op grasvelden die gedeeltelijk uit kunstgras bestaan. Desso Sports Systems uit Dendermonde kreeg de opdracht van het lokale organisatiecomité in Zuid-Afrika om het Desso GrassMaster-systeem te installeren in twee wedstrijdstadions. De kunstgrasvezels bieden speelzekerheid in alle weersomstandigheden.
ADHESE IMU (in artikel) - 2K - NIET VERWIJDEREN
Alles over
DendermondeVanaf eind april wordt het systeem geïnstalleerd in de stadions van Nelspruit (Mbombela) en Polokwane (Peter Mokaba). In die twee nieuwe stadions met een capaciteit van 45.000toeschouwers vinden telkens vier groepswedstrijden plaats. Onder meer Italië, Ivoorkust, Frankrijk en Argentinië spelen in de stadions minstens één wedstrijd. Oo |
