The chairman of Wembley David Bernstein said on Thursday that "The pitches of Wembley Stadium for this season's Champions League final will be in perfect condition."
Lot of critics had been heard following the stadium's re-opening in 2007 but the pitch has improved dramatically this season following a series of new innovations.
"We did have some well-publicised issues surrounding the pitch. But I can say with total confidence they are all behind us," Bernstein said after UEFA unveiled the branding for the match.
"The new system installed in the latter part of this year has been outstanding and been complimented on by managers and the players who have used it.
"We are confident it will be of the highest standard for the Champions League final and worthy of Europe's top two teams."
He also told Reuters: "I am confident the pitch will be in outstanding condition. There is no non-football related actvity, no concerts or anything on the pitch in the months leading up to the final. The stadium will be a fitting venue for the biggest match in club football."
