The pitch conditions at MetLife Stadium (temporarily referred to as New York/New Jersey Stadium), which will host the grand final of the 2026 World Cup, had received serious criticism throughout the tournament. However, FIFA announced that the pitch will be flawlessly ready for the championship match to be played on Sunday.
Alan Ferguson, FIFA's pitch expert, stated that he is confident the field is in excellent condition. According to Ferguson, temperature changes allowed the grass to adapt to the environment over time, creating a positive expectation for the final. Prominent figures such as Brazilian star Vinícius Júnior and French head coach Didier Deschamps had also pointed out that the pitch degraded the quality of play during the tournament.
