During a training session at the Stadion Wroclaw in Poland, Antony stopped and expressed his concerns about the grass being too sticky on his boots. He thinks the uneven surface will slow down his speed and make it difficult for him to control the ball. Other Betis players also complained after participating in drills and exercises.

The weather forecast is predicting rain, which could make the pitch even more uneven. This might impact the game, especially if the final is decided by a small margin. If the pitch isn't improved before the game, players like Antony might struggle with their pace and ball control.
