Watching FA Cup semi finals I could not help notice the disastrous state of the Wembley pitch (grass has been relaid five times since Wembley reopened) and our national Stadium pitch after last Monday's match (following a continuous day of heavy rain).
Credit goes to both set of players of Valletta and Hibernians for offering us a top drawer match and to the Ta' Qali staff, especially Victor Mifsud and Joe Azzopardi, for allowing the game to be played on the day due to the perfection condition of the pitch before, during and after the match.
