Marassi stadium completes new pitch installation for Genoa-Napoli match

The Marassi stadium in Genoa has completed the installation of a new hybrid grass pitch ahead of the Serie A season opener between Genoa and Napoli. Despite recent heavy storms in Liguria that raised concerns regarding the timeline, technicians successfully finished laying the natural grass reinforced with synthetic inserts.

The old turf was removed by truck on the afternoon prior to the match, and local sources indicate the playing surface is in excellent condition for the upcoming fixture.
