Ua kūkulu hou nā limahana i ke kahua pāʻani i ke kauwela a ʻaʻole i lanakila ʻo Liverpool ma ka home i ka liona no ke kau holoʻokoʻa.
Mai ka hoʻomaka ʻana o nā makahiki 1990, ua hoʻololi nā hoʻomaikaʻi nui i ke kahua pāʻani i ke ʻano o ka pāʻani ʻana. "Ma Arsenal, loaʻa mau iā mākou kahi kahua papa mua, akā i nā pāʻani ʻē aʻe e hoʻomau nei ka maikaʻi a ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi," i ʻōlelo mai ai ka luna mua ʻo Arsene Wenger iaʻu ma o ka leka uila.

He mea koʻikoʻi ka maikaʻi o ke kahua no nā hui maikaʻi loa e makemake e hoʻonui i nā talena o kā lākou mau mea pāʻani akamai.

E mālama ʻia ka hoʻokūkū ʻEulopa i kēia kauwela ma 11 mau kūlanakauhale ma ka ʻāina, akā aia ka hapa nui i nā lima o ka poʻe Pelekania. Ua koho ʻo UEFA i "Field Expert" ma kēlā me kēia kahua pāʻani e hana pū me nā māla kūloko e hōʻoia i nā pitch maikaʻi. Koe na Irishman Richard Hayden a me Greg Whately, no Enelani ka poe akamai lawelawe. Ma ke kahua pāʻani ʻo Wembley, ka home o ka semi-final a me ka hope, ʻo Dale Fries ka poʻe loea e lawelawe nei a me ka mālama ʻāina ʻo Carl Standley, he 36 makahiki Brit me kahi ʻoki lauoho ʻokiʻoki a me ka ʻōpala keʻokeʻo, nona nā makana i loaʻa nā Top turf Influencer Awards.
ʻEhā pule ma mua o ka pāʻani mua ʻana o ʻEnelani me Kroasia ma Wembley, ua kani ʻo Standley i ka nānā ʻana akā hoʻomaha, e like me kahi haumāna hōkū i mākaukau maikaʻi no nā hoʻokolohua. ʻAe,ʻo kāna hana ma ka European Championships eʻikeʻia e nā mea nānā aku ma mua o hoʻokahi piliona piliona a puni ka honua, aʻo ia, ke hilinaʻi nei nā hōkū o ka hoʻokūkū iā ia no kā lākou hana maikaʻi loa, akā,ʻaʻoleʻo ia i hopohopo. "Ua hoʻolālā mākou i kēia pāʻani no nā makahiki," i ʻōlelo mai ai ʻo Standley iaʻu i kēia manawa. "Hoʻolālā mākou e hoʻāʻo e hoʻopau ʻole."
Ua luhi ʻo Pitch ma ka ʻōlelo Pelekania. I ka wā ua, lilo lākou i ʻā. I loko o nā mahina hoʻoilo anu, huli ka ʻili i ka hau. A laila, ma hope o kekahi mau mahina, hoʻololi ka wā mahana iā lākou i ʻāina maloʻo, lepo lepo. "Makemake ka poʻe e hele mai i Wembley no ka mea ʻo ia wale nō ka māla mauʻu ma ʻEnelani," wahi a Calderwood.
ʻO nā kīhāpai maikaʻi ʻole ke hoʻopau ʻia nā pāʻani, ʻo ia hoʻi ka nalowale o ka loaʻa kālā, i alakaʻi ai i kekahi mau hui e huli i nā koho synthetic. I ka makahiki 1981, ua hoʻokomo ʻo Queens Park Rangers i ka OmniTurf. Ua hoʻomoe ʻia kahi ʻāpana lahilahi o ka turf artificial ma ka tarmac, a ua paʻakikī loa ka ʻili hou i hoʻomanaʻo ai ka luna kahiko o Oldham Athletic ʻo Joe Royle i kekahi manawa ua lele kiʻekiʻe ka kī kiʻekiʻe a hele wale ma luna o ka lāʻau ʻē aʻe. Akā ke hoʻomaka nei ʻo QPR e lanakila ma ko lākou ʻāina hou a ua hahai kekahi mau hui ʻē aʻe. Ua pāpā ka FA iā lākou i ka makahiki 1995 ma muli o kahi haunaele i kapa ʻia ʻo "plastic fields" i hāʻawi i ka poʻe hoʻokipa i kahi pono kūpono ʻole. Akā i kēia manawa, ua hoʻomaka kahi mokuna hou i ka hoʻokele pūnaewele.
E like me ka nui o nā moʻolelo pôpeku hou, ʻo ka piʻi ʻana o ka elite turf care he moʻolelo e pili ana i ke kālā a me ke kīwī. I ka makahiki 1990, i ka hoʻonui ʻia ʻana o nā kālā TV i ka Premier League hou, ua hoʻomaka nā hui e hoʻolilo hou aku i nā uku hoʻoili a me nā uku pāʻani. ʻOi aku ka nui o nā mea pāʻani, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka pale ʻana iā lākou mai ka pōʻino. ʻO kahi ala e hōʻemi ai i nā ʻeha, ʻo ia ka hāʻawi ʻana i kahi kahua pāʻani maikaʻi. ʻO ka hopena, ua loaʻa ka manaʻo hou o ka māla poina lōʻihi. "Ua ʻoi aku ka nui o ke koʻikoʻi ma luna o nā mea mālama," wahi a ka mea kiaʻi ʻo Nice Scott Brooks, ka mea i hana ma Arsenal a me Tottenham.
ʻAʻole wale ia e pili ana i ka pale ʻana i nā mea pāʻani, akā pili pū kekahi i nā mea nānā. Inā makemake ka Premier League e hoʻokumu iā ia iho he hōʻailona honua nani, pono ia i kahi huahana e nānā maikaʻi ma ka TV. ʻAʻole ʻae ʻia ka papa lepo, hoʻololi, piha ʻole. Wahi a Calderwood, ke hoʻomaka nei nā mea hoʻolaha e koi i nā "wahi like-pool." ʻO kekahi poʻe hoʻolaha hoʻolaha i ʻōlelo ʻia i kā lākou mau ʻaelike e pono ke kahua ma ke ʻano maʻemaʻe, e like me Geoff Webb, ka luna nui o ka Territory Management Association, e hōʻike ana i nā pono o nā māla Pelekane.
I ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana o ka papa, ua piʻi ka pāʻani ponoʻī. "ʻO nā lā a me nā pō mai kahi a mākou i Old Trafford," ʻo Sir Alex Ferguson, nāna i aʻo iā Manchester United mai 1986 a 2013, i haʻi mai iaʻu ma o ka leka uila. "ʻO ka ʻike ʻana he paʻa mau ʻoe, ka uhi kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe, ʻoiai inā pono ʻoe e neʻe i ka pōleʻa i kekahi wikiwiki, hele lōʻihi."
Aia ʻo Steve Braddock ma ka puʻuwai o kēia hoʻololi i ka mālama lau. Ua hana ʻo Braddock i ʻoi aku ma mua o kekahi mai ka hui pū ʻana me Arsenal ma 1987 e hana i kahi honua kahi o ka lawelawe kūpono loa. Ua haʻi ʻo Wenger i ka hālāwai ʻana me Braddock ʻo ia kekahi o kāna mau mea nui loa. "Ua loaʻa iaʻu kahi kanaka me ka makemake like no ka lawelawe kūpono," i ʻōlelo mai ai ʻo Wenger iaʻu. Wahi a ia, ʻo Braddock ke kī e hoʻokiʻekiʻe i ka pā i ka Premier League.
Ma ke kakahiaka pūnāwai makani, ua kiʻi ʻo Braddock iaʻu ma ke kahua ʻo Radley ma Hertfordshire a ua holo mākou i nā ala hoʻi i hope i ke kahua hoʻomaʻamaʻa o Arsenal ma Kearney, kahi āna i hoʻokumu ai i 11 pitches. ʻO kēia kāna pule mua i hoʻi i ka hana ma mua o hoʻokahi makahiki ʻoiai ʻo ia e hakakā nei i ka maʻi maʻi maʻi ʻoiai e mālama ana i ka maʻi maʻi ʻili.
I kona hōʻea ʻana mai, hōʻike ʻo ia iaʻu a puni, kū i kekahi manawa e kelepona i kāna ʻenekini hoʻolālā hilinaʻi e haʻi iā ia e pono e hoʻopaʻa ʻia nā kāʻei peʻahi ma kekahi o kāna mau traktor - ua lohe ʻo ia i ke kani ʻana ma kahi o 50 mau mika ka lōʻihi - - Ua hoʻopiʻi kekahi e pili ana i kahi mea māla. kokua nana i hoonee i na kia puka me ka hapai ole i na huila. "Ke waiho nei i nā hōʻailona," wehewehe ʻo ia. He kaʻao ka nānā ʻana o Braddock i nā kikoʻī: haʻi mai kekahi mea kōkua mua iaʻu inā hiki iā ia, e ʻoki ʻo ia i ka mauʻu me ka ʻoki.
ʻO Braddock wale nō ʻo 23 makahiki i kona komo ʻana iā Arsenal ma ke ʻano he luna kahua. I nā lā mua, i mua o ka palena kālā a me kāna i ʻike ai he moʻomeheu haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa, pono ʻo ia e ʻimi i kona ala ponoʻī. Ma luna o kēia mau mea a pau, aia kahi hoʻoponopono makahiki: i ka pau ʻana o kēlā me kēia kau, huki ʻia ka mahinaʻai e wehe i nā nāhelehele makemake ʻole i loaʻa nā aʻa pāpaʻu a ʻaʻole paʻa i ka turf ma kahi, e ʻoi aku ka maʻalahi o ka haki. Ma mua o ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana i ka ʻenehana i ka makahiki 2000, pono kēia i kekahi mau pule o ka hele ʻana i luna a i lalo i ke ala me nā mīkini i kapa ʻia he scarifiers.
I ka hala ʻana o ka manawa, ua hoʻohana nā ipu Pelekania ʻē aʻe i nā ʻano hana a Braddock, me kāna hoʻohana ʻana i ke one e kōkua wikiwiki ai i ka hoʻoheheʻe ʻana o ka pitch. "Ua hoʻololi ʻo Steve i ka ʻoihana," i ʻōlelo mai ai ka luna o ke kahua pāʻani ʻo Arsenal ʻo Paul Ashcroft iaʻu. ʻO ka ʻenehana hoʻoponopono ʻo Braddock "ʻaʻole i noʻonoʻo ʻia a i manaʻo ʻia he hiki ke hiki me nā lako liʻiliʻi i loaʻa." Hauʻoli nō hoʻi ʻo Braddock e kaʻana like i kāna naʻauao i hōʻiliʻili ʻia me nā hui ʻē aʻe. ʻO kekahi mau māla aʻu i kamaʻilio ai e hoʻomanaʻo i ka huli ʻana iā Braddock no ka ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo hoʻoponopono.
Me ka liʻiliʻi, hoʻomaka ka hoʻololi ʻana o ka hana o ka māla. Mai ka hopena o 1990s, i ka wā i koi ai ka Premier League iā lākou e aʻo ʻia i ka ʻepekema mea kanu, ua lilo ka hana i mea hoʻonui i ka ʻikepili. Kōkua pū nā ʻenehana hou. Hiki ke holo i kahi mower mauu ma ke kahua pāʻani e like me Wembley i 25-30 mau hola o ka pule, 50 mau pule o ka makahiki. Ua haʻi mai ʻo Standley iaʻu he 10 mau mile ka hele ʻana o ka ʻoki mauʻu e hala i Wembley i hoʻokahi manawa. Hoʻomaka nā kumukūʻai no kēia mau mīkini ma ka £11,000. I koʻu kipa ʻana i ka hale hana ʻo Dennis ma Derbyshire i ʻApelila, e hōʻuluʻulu ana lākou i 12 mau lawnmowers no ka hoʻouna ʻana i Qatar, ka mea a FIFA i kauoha ai no ka World Cup o ka makahiki e hiki mai ana.
No nā poʻe ʻoihana mālama lawn Pelekania, ʻeha mau nā kūlana ʻEulopa. "ʻAʻole lākou i maopopo i ka mea e pono ai ke pāʻani i ka pôpeku ʻoihana," wahi a Stones, e hoʻomanaʻo ana i kona manawa ma Stade de France ma ke ʻano he alakaʻi poʻo. Manaʻo ʻo Calderwood e pili ana i ka hoʻonaʻauao. E like me nā poʻe loea mālama lawn, ua aʻo ʻo ia i ka ʻepekema lawn ma Miles Coe College ma Preston. "ʻOiai no ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi mea e like me ka diploma a i ʻole ka diploma aupuni holomua, ʻaʻole hiki ke hiki ma Farani, ʻaʻohe mea like," wahi āna.
I kona hōʻea ʻana i Paris Saint-Germain, ua haʻalulu ʻo Calderwood i kāna mea i loaʻa ai. ʻAʻole loaʻa i nā hui kula nā ʻoki ʻoki pono e hoʻomaʻemaʻe i ka mauʻu make ma hope o nā pāʻani. "ʻAʻole lākou i ʻike i kahi mea maʻalahi e like me kēlā," i ʻōlelo mai ai ʻo ia iaʻu, e like me ka haʻalulu e like me ka mea i ʻike ʻaʻole maopopo i kona hoalauna e ʻoki ʻo ia i ka mauʻu. I koʻu kamaʻilio ʻana me ka hope o Calderwood, he Palani kona inoa ʻo Arnaud Meline, ua haʻi mai ʻo ia iaʻu he ʻokoʻa ka "hiʻo" o ka mauʻu ma kona ʻāina hānau. No ka poʻe Farani, ʻo ia nō ka "wahi e hele ai i kahi barbecue me nā hoaaloha."
Hoʻomaka ka hoʻomākaukau ʻana no Euro 2020 ma mua o ʻelua mau makahiki i hala. I nā hola mua o ʻApelila 25, 2019, ua hoʻokele ʻo Dale Frith i ka M6 a Wembley, kahi e hōʻuluʻulu ai ʻo UEFA i kāna hui o nā loea no kahi hālāwai "kick-off".
Ma ka hola 10 am, nui nā kānaka mālama mauu ma ka papaʻaina. Ma waho aʻe o Fries, aia pū kekahi ʻo Richard Hayden, ka mea i ʻōlelo ʻo ia wale nō ka mea loea turf i hoʻololi kūleʻa i nā kahua ma Lille i ka wā Euro 2016. Ua hana pū ʻo Dean Gilasby me FIFA e hoʻomohala i nā poʻe kiaʻi kime a puni ka honua, mai Makedonia a Ghana. ʻO Andy Cole ka loea hoʻokolokolo lōʻihi loa ma kēia lumi, ua pāʻani ʻo ia ma ʻekolu mau hoʻokūkū ʻEulopa a me ʻekolu mau hoʻokūkū honua. ʻAʻole kēia poʻe he mau māla, he mau mea aʻoaʻo lawn, agronomists a mālama i kekahi mau papahana e hoʻomau nei.
Ua hōʻike nā ʻelele UEFA i ka papa hana no nā mahina e hiki mai ana, a me kā lākou mau manaʻo mai kēlā me kēia kahua pāʻani. Wahi a nā alakaʻi a UEFA, pono e ʻoi aku ka paʻa ma luna o 30 newton mika (Nm), ʻo ia kahi ʻāpana o ka torque e ana i ka pilina o ka mea pāʻani me ka ʻili. Hiki i ka nui o ka huki ʻana ke hōʻino i nā ligaments a alakaʻi i ka hōʻeha, hiki i ka liʻiliʻi ke hoʻolilo i ka mea pāʻani i ke kaulike. Pono ka paʻakikī o ka ʻili ma waena o 70 a me 90 gravimetric - he ana kēia o ka wikiwiki o ka hāmare i ka hopena. Inā palupalu loa ka pōleʻa, luhi koke ka mea pāʻani, inā paʻakikī loa, piʻi aʻe ka pōʻino o ka pōʻino a lele kiʻekiʻe ka pōleʻa. Pono ka turf ma waena o 24mm a me 28mm a pono e ʻoki ʻia i kahi laina pololei ma waena o ke kula a kū pololei i ka laina paʻi. Hoʻopaʻa inoa ia i ka nui o ka helu hoʻopaʻi a me ke kiko waena (200mm a me 240mm ke anawaena, kēlā me kēia).
Ma ke ʻano he mea aʻoaʻo, e kākoʻo ʻo Fries i ka UEFA ma ka nānā ʻana i ka ʻikepili pitch mai ka janitor Standley a me ka hana ʻana i nā hoʻokolohua kūʻokoʻa. ʻAʻole maʻalahi ka pilina ma waena o nā māla a me nā mea kūkākūkā. ʻO ka poʻe māla ke kuleana no ka mālama ʻana i kēlā me kēia lā i nā wahi kikoʻī, ʻoiai e holo ana nā mea kūkākūkā ma waena o nā papahana, mai ka World Cup a hiki i nā haʻuki nui. (I ka wā o ka mākaʻikaʻi ʻana iā Wembley, e hana ana ʻo Frith ma St. Helens Primary School, nona kahi kahua haʻuki maikaʻi ʻole. "ʻIke wau i kaʻu makemake, akā e hana nā limahana akamai i kaʻu makemake," i ʻōlelo mai ai ʻo Andy Cole iaʻu. No kahi māla Pelekane hou i aʻo ʻia i ka horticulture, hiki ke ʻoluʻolu kēia ʻano. ʻO Standley, ka mea i lanakila i nā makana he nui i kāna mau makahiki he 15 ma ke ʻano he māla ma Wembley Stadium a makemake nui i kāna hana, ua hōʻole mua ʻo ia e ninaninau ʻia no kēia ʻatikala no ka mea ua hopohopo ʻo ia e hoʻomāhuahua i ka hana a nā mea aʻoaʻo turf.
Ua hoʻohālikelike ʻo Standley i kāna hana me ka lele ʻana i ka mokulele. Manaʻo ʻo ia hiki iā ia ke pae mālie i nā lā hoʻokūkū me ka hoʻomākaukau pono ʻana, akā ke hoʻi i hope nā pāʻani, noho ʻo ia i ka pō ma kahi hōkele kokoke inā loaʻa kekahi mea i manaʻo ʻole ʻia.

Ua kapa ʻo ia i ke kahua pāʻani ʻo Wembley i kāna keiki ʻelua no ka mea "ola a hanu ʻo ia i hoʻokahi". (Maʻamau ka ʻōlelo ʻana o ka poʻe māla i kēia ke manaʻo nei lākou i ka wā e "make wai" ai ʻole "pololi" ka māla.)
ʻO ka mālama maikaʻi ʻana ma ke kula e pili ana i ka loaʻa ʻana o ka mana kokoke i nā mea āpau o ke kula. I Mei, ua kipa au iā Dave Roberts, ka luna o ke kahua pāʻani kiʻekiʻe o Liverpool, ma Anfield a ua hōʻike mai ʻo ia iaʻu i kona hoʻohana ʻana i nā mea ʻike wela a me ka wai i ka lepo e hana i nā kūlana maikaʻi loa no ka mauʻu a me ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka zeolite (he ʻano lehu lua pele, lepo) mau magnets. wai ma ka ʻaʻa. ʻO ka ʻōnaehana irrigation "mau" ʻo Anfield he ʻano pahu pahu i hoʻopili ʻia ma lalo o kahi pūnaewele o nā paipu wela e hoʻolalelale i ka wai a ʻae iā ia e hoʻoinu i ka ʻili holoʻokoʻa ma lalo o ʻekolu mau minuke.

I ka pō ma mua, ua hāʻule ʻo 6 mm o ka ua ma mua o ka 2 mm i wānana ʻia, kahi i hoʻoweliweli ʻia ma waena o ka hui Standley.
I koʻu nīnau ʻana iā Standley i ka mea e makaʻu ai iā ia, hoʻomanaʻo ʻo ia i ka hau hau i hōʻea i nā hola wale nō ma mua o Tottenham 2018 FA Cup e kūʻē iā Rochdale ma Wembley. (Ma hope o ka pāʻani, pono e hele mai ka poʻe o ka honua i kahi me nā ʻōpala e hoʻomaʻemaʻe i ka wahi hoʻopaʻi.) "ʻO ke kūlohelohe ka pilikia nui loa," wahi a Standley iaʻu. ʻOiai ua hoʻomaka ʻo Frith i kāna ʻoihana ma ke ʻano he māla, ua huli ʻo ia i kahi mea aʻoaʻo ma 2008, ma kahi ʻāpana no ka "kaʻole o ka mana" i hopohopo iā ia.
He uku paha ka hana. E like me ka poʻe kiaʻi, ʻaʻole ʻike nui ka poʻe māla i ka wā e holo maikaʻi ana nā mea, akā inā hewa nā mea, ʻo lākou ka mea mua e hoʻopiʻi ʻia. No nā Pōhaku, he nohona ia, ʻaʻole he hana. "ʻAʻole ʻoe e lilo i māla, ua hānau ʻia ʻoe he māla," wahi āna.
Inā ʻoe e ʻimi nei i kahi papa haʻuki honua, ʻo Wembley Stadium kahi koho maikaʻi ʻole. Hoʻohālikelike ʻo Standley i kāna hana me ka ulu ʻana i ka mauʻu ma ka pahu kāmaʻa. Mai Sepatemaba a Malaki, he 50-mika ke ku ana i ke aka ma ka lau nahele. I loko o kēia mau mahina, ʻaʻole ʻoi aku ka nui o ka māmā o ke kahua pāʻani ma mua o 12 µmol, ma lalo o ka 20 µmol e pono ai no ka ulu ʻana o ka mauʻu. Ua maikaʻi ʻole ʻo Wembley, wahi a Standley. E like me ka ʻōlelo a ka poʻe akamai i ka lau nahele, me ka makani ʻole, lilo ka mauʻu i "palaualelo" a hāʻule hope a make.
Loaʻa iā Standley kekahi mau mea hana maikaʻi loa no ka hoʻoponopono ʻana i kēia mau pilikia. Hoʻohana ʻo ia i kahi ʻōnaehana aeration ma lalo o ka honua e hoʻokiʻekiʻe i ke kiʻekiʻe o ka wai a me ka oxygen ma ke one a hui pū ʻia a hiki i 30 kenimika ma lalo o ka ʻili (i kapa ʻia ʻo "root zone"). No ka hoʻoulu ʻana i ka ulu ʻana o ka mauʻu, hāʻawi pū ia i ka wai wela ma o nā paipu lalo, e hoʻonui ana i ka mahana ma ke aʻa o luna a hiki i 17 ° C. Ke ulu koke nā ʻanoʻano, hoʻāla ʻo ia i nā kukui a me ʻeono mau mea pā nui e hoʻohālikelike i nā kūlana kauwela. ʻO ka mea e like me kahi ʻāpana mauʻu maʻamau he "hui kemika nunui," i haʻi mai iaʻu.
No ka mālama ʻana i ke kahua kiʻekiʻe o Wembley i ke kauwela, pono e hoʻopau ʻia nā hana nui i ka wā hoʻoilo. Ma ka lā 20 o Nowemapa, 2019, i ka hoʻomākaukau ʻana no ka hoʻokūkū ʻEulopa, ʻo ia ka manawa e hoʻomaka ai i ke kūkulu hou ʻana i ke kahua pāʻani - e hoʻololi i ka ʻāpana kumu mua he 6,000 tons. Nui ka lepo o ka lepo maoli o Lādana, ʻo ia hoʻi, ʻaʻole ia e kahe maikaʻi, no laila ua lawe mai ʻo Standley i ke one mai Surrey e hoʻokē ʻai i ka wai. He hana ko'iko'i ka hana hou 'ana i ka 'āina i kēlā me kēia 'ewalu makahiki. ʻO kahi hui o 15 mau limahana, e hana ana i nā hola 24 o ka lā no ʻekolu pule, e mālama i ka manawa a me ke kālā ma ka lawe ʻana i nā lako i ke kahua pāʻani i ka pō ke emi ʻole ke kaʻa.
Ma kahi o 11 mau pule e oʻo ai ka mauʻu ma hope o ke kau ʻana i ka sod hou. (Ua komo pū kēia me ka ulana ʻana i kahi ʻāpana liʻiliʻi o ka mauʻu kūlohelohe i ka ʻili e hoʻopaʻa ai.) A laila, i Malaki 2020, ua hoʻoneʻe ʻo UEFA i ka European Championship i ke kauwela aʻe. He mea hōʻeha kēia no Standley, akā ʻaʻole ia he pōʻino. I Nowemapa 2020, ua hoʻoponopono ʻo ia i ka pitch a hoʻomaka i ka hoʻāʻo ʻana, e hoʻouna ana i nā hopena iā Frith no ka wehewehe ʻana no ka UEFA. Mai Pepeluali 2021, hele ʻo Frith i Ladana no kāna hoʻāʻo ponoʻī.
Hoʻopili maikaʻi ʻo Standley iā Wembley i nā haʻuki ʻē aʻe e like me ka rugby a me ka pôpeku ʻAmelika. ʻO ka mea hope, ʻōlelo ʻo ia, he manawa pāʻani pōkole a makemake ʻo ia i ka "traction kiʻekiʻe". I mea e hoʻoikaika ai i nā mea pāʻani e hoʻololi i ke ala e like me ka hiki, pono ka NFL i nā māla paʻa me ka gravity ma waena o 90 a me 100. No ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka paʻakikī o ke kahua, e kaupaona ka hui Standley i kā lākou mau mower ma kahi o 30 kg. Hiki iā Standley ke hoʻohui i hoʻokahi ʻāpana o ke kaumaha i kēlā me kēia ʻoki. No ka hoʻokuʻu hou ʻana i ke kaomi, e huli ʻo ia i ka Verti-Drain, kahi mea hana i hana ʻia me ʻeono mau mākia e ʻeli i loko o ka lepo e hoʻomaha ai i ka haʻalulu ma ka wāwahi ʻana i ka lepo. No ka hāʻawi ʻana i ka pale hou no nā mea pāʻani pôpeku ʻAmelika ke hāʻule lākou, hoʻolōʻihi iki ʻo Standley i ka mauʻu, a hiki i kahi 32mm.
Ua hana nā Breeders i mau kaukani o nā ʻano like ʻole e hāʻawi i ka mauʻu kūpono no kēlā me kēia haʻuki. Lawe lākou i kekahi manawa a hiki i 15 mau makahiki no ka hoʻomohala ʻana i kahi ʻano hou, a ʻo kā lākou pūʻulu ikaika loa e pau ma ka papa ʻaina o Kauka Christian Spring ma West Yorkshire Sports Turf Institute. Hoʻokaʻawale ʻo STRI i ka mauʻu no nā ʻano maikaʻi e like me ka "shoot density" (ka mānoanoa o ka turf) a me ka "recovery" (pehea ka wikiwiki o ka hoʻihoʻi ʻana mai ka ʻaʻahu). Hoʻoponopono pono ʻo STRI i kēlā me kēia ʻano a hoʻopuka i kāna mau ʻike i loko o kahi puke makahiki a Standley i kapa ai i kāna Baibala.
Eia nō naʻe, ʻaʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻohuli iā Wembley i kahi pā kikī a mauʻu paha. He one nui ka lepo, no laila ʻaʻole paʻakikī loa ka ʻili. Ma kahi awakea pōʻeleʻele, hele au i ka hema o Lākana, kahi e hoʻomākaukau ai ʻo Neil Stubly, ka luna o ka turf a me ka horticulture no ka All England Lawn Tennis Club, no Wimbledon. Ke paʻi ka pōleʻa mua i ka hopena o Iune, ʻoi aku ka ikaika o Wimbledon ma mua o Wembley i ka wā i hele ai ka NFL i ke kūlanakauhale.
E like me Calderwood, ua hele ʻo Stubley i ke Kula Nui ʻo Myerscoe, kahi i aʻo ʻia ai ʻo ia e pono mau nā mea kanu i ke olakino, wai maikaʻi, a hānai maikaʻi ʻia. "A laila hoʻomaka ʻoe i ka pāʻani tennis, ʻōwili i ka bezius, hoʻōki i ka hānai ʻana, hoʻōki i ka hoʻoinu ʻana," haʻi mai ʻo ia iaʻu. No ka hana ʻana i ka māla mauʻu maikaʻi loa, pono ʻo Stubly e kau i kahi kaulike ma waena o ke ola a me ka make. "Ke hoʻomaka ʻoe i kahi hoʻokūkū, make mālie nā mea kanu no ka mea e pōloli ana ʻoe," wahi āna. Akā ʻaʻole pono e maloʻo ka ʻili i ka wā mua, "i ʻole e make ka mea kanu i ka pule ʻelua." Ua hoʻopau ʻo Kort i ka heihei ʻelua pule me kahi 300 g, ʻaʻole i ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma mua o ka asphalt.
I koʻu kipa mua ʻana iā Standley ma Wembley ma 12 Mei - ʻehā pule ma mua o ka hoʻokūkū ʻEulopa a ʻekolu mau lā ma mua o ka hopena FA Cup - ʻo nā mea āpau wale nō o nā mea hoʻolaha a me ka Standley Five, ʻaʻole i helu i nā limahana o ka honua, ua nele ke kahua pāʻani. Ke kokoke mai nei ke kīʻaha, ua hiki ka lōʻihi o ke kahua i ka lōʻihi o ka pāʻani: 24 mm. Ma waena o nā lāhui, hoʻokuʻu ʻo Standley i ka mauʻu e like me ka hiki. A laila ʻoki kāna hui iā ia ma kahi o 2mm i ka lā no hoʻokahi pule. (Hiki i nā ʻoki ʻoi aku ke kaumaha i nā mea kanu a huli melemele.) ʻEhā lā ma mua o ka hoʻomaka ʻana, e ʻoki lākou i ka lōʻihi like, e ʻoki wale i kahi ʻāpana liʻiliʻi i kēlā me kēia lā. ʻO kēia beveling mau e hoʻokūpaʻa i ke kumu ma ke kahua, e like me ka papa chessboard ʻōmaʻomaʻo.
Ma hope o kēlā kakahiaka, hoʻāʻo wau i ka papa me Fries. Me nā mea lako like ʻole, he nui nā mea e like me nā mea hana hoʻomāinoino no ka wā e hiki mai ana, ua hoʻopuʻi ʻo Frith i nā lau nahele ʻo Wembley, me ka makaʻala ʻaʻole e ʻoki i kekahi o nā mea ʻoki ʻoki uila. E like me ka mea i manaʻo ʻia, maikaʻi ke ʻano o ka papa. Ma hope o kēlā pule, ua hoʻouka ʻo ia i ka helu i ka UEFA Bosses Portal.
ʻAʻole a hiki i koʻu hoʻi ʻana mai i ʻelua pule ma hope, i ka lā o ka hoʻokūkū hoʻokūkū hoʻokūkū, ʻike wau i ke koʻikoʻi o ka hana a Standley. I koʻu hōʻea ʻana ma kahi o hoʻokahi hola ma mua o ka hoʻomaka ʻana, ua ʻike ʻia ʻo Standley i ka puʻupuʻu a ua ʻāwili ʻia kona lauoho, kahi haʻalele ʻana mai kona helehelena maikaʻi ʻole. Me ka lanakila i hoʻokiʻekiʻe ʻia i ka Premier League, ka pāʻani kiʻekiʻe loa o ka pôpeku Pelekane, ua hōʻailona ia i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka hopena pule paʻakikī o ka kalena Standley, me ʻekolu mau pāʻani pololei i pāʻani ʻia mai ka Pōʻaono a i ka Pōʻakahi. Ma hope o kēlā, e loaʻa iā ia ʻelua pule e hana i nā hoʻoponopono hope loa ma mua o ka pāʻani mua o ʻEnelani i ka European Cup.
Ma ka hola 2:00, ua hālāwai ʻo Standley me ka hui honua ma mua o ka hele ʻana i ke kahua pāʻani e nānā i ka pāʻani. "ʻOiai ke heluhelu nei mākou i nā ʻikepili āpau, pono wau e ʻike i nā hōʻike i kēia manawa," i ʻōlelo mai ai ʻo ia iaʻu. Ke nānā nei ʻo Standley i ka pôpeku e like me ka mea hana kiʻiʻoniʻoni e nānā ana i kahi kiʻiʻoniʻoni: he aha ke kumu no nā poʻe ʻē aʻe, ʻoiaʻiʻo, nānā ʻo ia iā ia iho.
"ʻAʻole au e nānā i nā mea pāʻani, ke nānā nei au i ko lākou mau kāmaʻa e pā i ka honua," wahi āna. E mālama ʻo ia i ka hala, e like me ka makaʻu o ka poʻe maʻamau e ʻike i kāna mea pale e hōʻole i ka hoʻopaʻi. ʻO ka mea like me ka helu ʻana o kāna hui ʻo ia ke nānā ʻana i kahi mea pāʻani i ka wili, huli a huli paha, hiki ke hana ʻia ma kahi pitch i kāhiko maikaʻi ʻia. Ua hauʻoli ʻo Standley i ka wā i hana ai ʻo Phil Foden i kahi pana kupanaha ma ka ʻaoʻao hema ma hope o ka pāʻani ʻana o Wembley me Iceland i Nowemapa. "Ke hilinaʻi nei ʻo ia i kahi pā hale paʻa," wahi a Standley me ka ʻakaʻaka.
Ma hope wale nō o ka pāʻani ua hiki iā Standley ke hanu. Ma hope o ka hoʻokūkū hoʻokūkū hoʻokūkū, hele ʻo ia i ke keʻena e hoʻomaha a hoʻolohe i nā mele. Makemake ʻo ia i ka hoʻolohe ʻana i nā mea pena kiʻi āna i hālāwai ai ma Wembley: Coldplay, Adele, Springsteen. I loko o 24 mau hola, pono ʻo ia e hana hou, a laila hou i ka lā aʻe. Ke hele nei ʻo ia i ka hōkele, ʻae ʻo ia iā ia iho e noʻonoʻo i ka euro. Ma ka Poalua, Iune 1, e hoʻololi ʻia ke kahua pāʻani holoʻokoʻa i ʻike ʻia ka logo Euro 2020 ma nā kū. "ʻEkolu makahiki a mākou i hiki ai i ʻaneʻi," wahi a Standley. "Ua hoʻomākaukau mākou no kēia, makemake mākou i kahi pae palupalu."
ʻO ka hola ʻeono i hōʻea mai ʻo Standley e nānā i ka pāʻani mua o ʻEnelani ma ka lā Lāpule 13 Iune, akā ua mahana. Ua hahai ʻo ia i ke kaʻina hana maʻamau, e hoʻomaka ana me ka hele wāwae ʻana i ke kahua pāʻani. Ua hōʻoluʻolu ʻo ia i kona mau aʻalolo a ua ʻike ʻo ia i ka ʻili. Ua kāhea ka wānana i nā wela kiʻekiʻe, no laila ua ʻike ʻo Standley ʻo ka hoʻoinu ʻana i ke ala he mea nui loa, ʻoi loa ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻākau, kahi i ʻike ʻia i ka lā. Ma hope o ka hoʻopau ʻana o Standley i kāna mākaʻikaʻi ʻana, ua ʻoki ʻoki kāna hui iā ia i ʻelua manawa e hoʻomaʻamaʻa i ke kumu i ʻike ʻia ma ke kahua, a pena hou i ka laina keʻokeʻo ʻelua. I ke awakea, ʻelua hola ma mua o ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka pāʻani, ua hoʻoinu ʻia ke kahua no ka lua o ka manawa.
