Uefa Nations League match venue
The UEFA Nations League match between Montenegro and Wales on September 9 has been moved from the Gradski Stadion in Podgorica to the City Stadium in Nikšić due to significant damage to the playing surface, which was deemed unfit for international play. UEFA inspectors found the Podgorica pitch to be cratered and lacking large areas of grass, prompting the change to ensure better playing conditions. The City Stadium, with a capacity of 5,000, has never hosted a senior international match since Montenegro's independence in 2007, raising concerns about its suitability. The Football Association of Wales has expressed frustration over the late notice, as many fans had already made travel arrangements to Podgorica. Discussions are ongoing to minimize disruption for Welsh fans and the national team, with updates expected soon. This venue change highlights the ongoing issues with pitch quality in Montenegro, as local clubs have also faced similar challenges.
