Giovanni van Bronckhorst is astonished and displeased by the state of the grass at La Cartuja, the stadium where Feyenoord will play Real Betis in the Champions League on Wednesday. The state of the grass is "not of Champions League level", according to the trainer. Van Bronckhorst stressed that his team will not be distracted by the poor state of the grass. He also stated that the upcoming match against PSV, the Eredivisie leaders, is not a priority for Feyenoord at this moment. Van Bronckhorst said, "We are not looking at PSV right now. We are here to win and get three points. We are only looking at Wednesday. It can also be done, because we have everyone fit. For us, the match against Real Betis is the most important."
