Or Luzhniki Stadium as it's now known...well anyway, as you probably already know it will be the venue for next season's UCL final. It's a stadium that has an artificial pitch. Has there ever been a high profile match like this that has been played on an artificial pitch?

Blimey that will be a long way to travel!

Whats the capacity ? No doubt UEFA will give each team 46 tickets each.

I dont belive that it will be played on a plastic pitch though! Surely it will be changed!

No worries...just heard that they will install natural grass for the UCL final. Apparently the stadium has a five star UEFA classification and it has a capacity of over 80k, so it's not a small stadium.

Yeah I quite like the look of it, it's got that old school charm.

I've seen that stadium in the flesh and it is the absolute bollox.

Capacity 84,000. Should get about 32,000 tickets each club, he says

I have never been to Russia and would love to go.

If it was to see the Mighty Blues in the CL final so much the better.

Looking at the picture though, with the running track and all, the seating seems a long, long way from the pitch.

Did you not think the san siro was far from the pith in terms of seating... the stand i was in had what i can probably only describe as a moat in frount of me and was deffinatly thinking that it didnt seem any where near as close to the pitch as english grounds

almost as far as this just!

fingers crossed this time next year we are on a flight back from there...
