hole in the center circle
After the final whistle, a deep hole on the field caused a stir. Danish striker Andreas Skov Olsen discovered the hole in the center circle after the final whistle. TV footage showed him and some of his team-mates stepping into the center circle hole, half of Skov’s lower leg disappearing into it. Apparently it must have been after the final whistle, because it would have been noticed during the game and would have increased the risk of injury and caused an interruption. It’s probably a result of heavy rain in the days leading up to the game.
According to the Austrian Football Association (ÖFB), the problem with the lawn is still being clarified. According to the ÖFB, the upcoming Nations League game on Friday (June 10th, 2022) against world champion France is not at risk. Specialized technicians would still check the lawn, the association said.
