For Wednesday's game against Russia, do the players have to wear ordinary boots or the astroturf type?

Question

Sorry, should have clarified. I know there's a difference. I just wondered how it differs....

Answer 1

AstroTurf is a brand of artificial turf. Though the term is a registered trademark, it is sometimes used as a generic description of any kind of artificial turf.

There is a difference, but basically they will wear normal boots, but not studs that will rip the surface. They will change them for soft, hard ground types.

So the answer is Ordinary Boots. Good question

Answer 2

Boots with moulded studs. It's not full astroturf but it's not grass that would take a stud so moulded (or rubber) studs will be the order of the day

Answer 3

Ordinary boots. It's not 'AstroTurf' as such - the pitch is 'artificial grass'. I know that might not sound like much of a distinction, but there's a difference.

Answer 4

english players are quality professional footballers, this "Turf Tactic" is receiving to much attention. I'm sure the Three Lions will not be beaten by a few blades of artificial grass.

That being said I wish FIFA would ban all other turfs except for "Real Grass"

Answer 5

It all depends on whether the players are going to be in an ordinary or astroturf mood.
































lol

Answer 6

Ordinary ones

Answer 7

Players will wear normal football boots without metal tipped studs.

Answer 8

The sell Astro boots so I'm guessing that's a possibility. Boots with studs wont be any good could get twisted ankles.

Answer 9

erm... i dont know but i would say the ordinary because they are not playing on astroturf just normal grass

Answer 10

they will wear studed boots because the day before the game they are going to flood the pitch, otherwise they would be wearing astros.
