🌍 A Unique Tournament, A Transformed Stadium!

With just a few months left before the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 kicks off, one of the most talked-about topics is the major changes made to MetLife Stadium, located near New York City, USA.

This $1.6 billion stadium, traditionally home to NFL teams like the New York Jets and New York Giants, has installed natural grass for the first time in over 10 years — in preparation to host this prestigious club competition.

🟢 From Artificial Turf to Natural Grass – A Major Transition

MetLife Stadium had been using artificial turf known as UBU Speed S5-M since 2010, later switching to FieldTurf Core HD in 2023. But with FIFA ushering in a new era of football, the stadium decided to install natural grass to help players perform better and reduce injuries.

👉 This natural grass provides comfort and safety for football players, bringing the stadium closer to meeting FIFA’s official standards.

🧠 Why Is This Change Important?
Research shows that natural grass reduces injuries, allows the ball to roll smoothly, and gives players confidence in their play.

This will be a big advantage for teams participating in the Club World Cup such as Real Madrid, Al Ahly, Palmeiras, and others.

🗣️ Reactions
Some NFL players have expressed concerns, saying the change may favor football (soccer) more than American football. However, New York residents and football fans see it as a positive step forward.
