Orlando like New York (Stadium)

[Michael Morris]

England's game delayed this evening for bad weather.

More water than grass… teams will arrive as normal. Each thunder strike means the stadium can’t be opened for at least 30 minutes and we’ve just had a real crack!! Anymore after 2.45pm local time will impact KO. Told the water will clear quickly… 👀 pic.twitter.com/qHzVXPttxS

Two men in the corner with brushes feels like a token effort. It will take them all evening to do the whole pitch. pic.twitter.com/UALrg0XegW

Impressive drainage system 👍

That's going to happen on the east coast a few times during this world cup.

Are they brushing the water back on to the pitch?

Re: Orlando like New York (Stadium)

I know a family who went to watch a game last year at the Inter&Co and just before kick off they had a Florida rain storm, couldnt see the pitch, completely under water, KO was pushed back 1 hour, then another 1/2 hour, but inside that time the rain had gone and the pitch was playable, they had a 6yr old with them, of course by the end of the game it was close to midnight

great system in place though
