    I've heard that they might have to close the roof, drain the pitch then play it tomorrow. If the stadium has a retractable roof, why on earth wasn't it closed earlier? It's not like rain comes without warning these days.

    Apparently both teams have to agree and Poland wanted it open.

    presumably as playing on a quagmire usually evens things up for the weaker side. either that or the poles are good swimmers.

    Poland would be given a points deduction if it was up to me for making no attempt to clear the pitch and ensure they provide a stadium fit to hold a football match.

    Totally separate but I suppose you could argue that they hold the upper hand as they have the power, in theory, to suspend their national teams from the WC.
