The National 1 club Orléans has done everything to play its match in its stadium. However, the pitch, which was still being laid on Friday, raises concerns just hours before the Coupe de France match.
Luis Enrique expresses hope that there won’t be any issues with the pitch, which was barely laid on Friday in Orléans.
“It’s a strange and very different situation. If all circumstances were normal, it would be an opportunity to rotate, but due to the pitch, I will decide who will play after seeing the state of the field. We won’t take risks. There are many possible changes.”
“I will decide who will play and how we will play when I see the state of the pitch. I hope the pitch will be in good condition, but I have doubts. Especially to avoid any physical risks for the players. There are already enough risks in a normal match.”
The pitch was fully laid on Thursday but won’t have enough time to settle into the ground.
