[QUOTE="psychic duck, post: 722616, member: 48703"] They just felt a 20,000 stadium would be more appropriate, better atmosphere for a game against a lower profile team, whilst also giving other parts of the country a chance to see an international. Likewise Italy playing at the Stadio Olimpico has nothing to do with pitch width. It was just the stadium they managed to get when they decided on going for a bigger one than the Stadio de Flaminio. They wouldn't have gone back to a 30,000 stadium and lost a whole load of potential ticket sales just because of the pitch width. [/QUOTE]
