Judge Laurent Duhamel from France allowed to hold a match between the national teams of Lithuania and Spain in Kaunas tonight, as reported by the foreign press. Although the condition of the field worsened after a night frost, it was decided to take all possible measures to improve it.
However, there is a possibility that the changed weather conditions in the evening could change this decision.
Meanwhile, the more insulting comments about the condition of the Darius and Girėnas Stadium are increasing. The newspaper "Marca" openly writes: "Spaniards will play on the sands of Kaunas" and compares the upcoming match to beach soccer. The text also mentions potato fields.
At the same time, AS journalists are convinced that the match will not be postponed, but they are also surprised by the conditions and interview one of the fans who is puzzled by agriculture.
"This field is not suitable for football or growing melons, but artichokes would definitely thrive here. They don't need much heat and sun," he said.
Meanwhile, "Sport.es" notes, among other things, that Lithuanian girls, not hiding their sympathies for the goalkeeper Xavi, watched the Spanish team's training on Monday.
