FIVA's Decision on World Cup Final Sites
FIVA is in the process of choosing between AT&T Stadium in Dallas and MetLife Stadium in New Jersey for the World Cup final. Concerns arise regarding the Turf stadiums as the World Cup is traditionally played on grass. FIVA's requirement is for the stadiums to have natural grass or a natural grass hybrid. However, there are concerns about the newly installed grass fields holding up throughout the tournament. The decision is expected to be made soon, and politicians' statements may provide clues about the outcome.
