Arsenal reportedly requested a pitch inspection ahead of kick-off in the their Champions League semi-final first leg tie against Atletico Madrid, with the Gunners’ grounds staff believing that the grass was too long at the Metropolitano Stadium.
Clips circulating on social media show Arsenal staff seemingly in conversation while inspecting the grass on the pitch, and Spanish journalist Guillem Balague later reported that the club had formally asked Uefa to measure the length of the grass.
