About the previous state of the pitch
The Baba Yara Sports Stadium was in a deplorable state after footage emerged on social media showing its poor condition.
In a video that went viral on social media, specifically X, the grass on the pitch seemed to have faded significantly, sparking concerns.
The pitch, which is expected to be watered regularly to maintain its moisture, had turned dry and brown.
The entire pitch was faded, with only small portions occupied by grass, while other fixtures at the facility seemed to be in bad shape, despite the facility being closed for work.
