Water logged pitch in Andorra

Birkirkara FC had a training session today in the "Estadi Comunal d'Andorra la Vella". This is the ground to be used for tomorrow's first leg encounter of the Champions League fixture. Much to the dissapointment of our Club, the pitch was found to be in a very bad state. The pitch is waterlogged mainly due to the heavy rain. The laying of carpet grass only a few hours before this training session, was another reason why the pitch is in this terrible shape.

First match of UEFA Champions League

On Tuesday, Birkirkara FC will be involved in their 1st leg of the 1st Qualifying Round in the Champions League. This will be the opening match of the Champions League for the season 2010-2011. The draw which took place last Monday saw Birkirkara draw against the current champions of Andorra, Santa Coloma. The 1st leg will take place in the Estadi Comunal d'Andorra la Vella, which has a capacity of around 800 spectators. This is one of the two grounds that host the majority of the matches of the Andorra's two highest football competitions. On the other hand, the 2nd leg will be played in the Centenary Stadium, Ta' Qali. The price for a ticket will be just €5. Mr. Paul Zammit will welcome back from injury the promising youngster, Rowen Muscat. However he will still have to do without the services of Angus Buhagiar and Branko Nisevic. As mentioned by many, this is the perfect chance for the 'Stripes' to write their name in history as Birkirkara have never qualified for another round in the UEFA Champions League.
