wow

its 68 x 106

FIFA and MLS standards mandate a minimum width of 70 yards and a minimum length of 110 yards for the field. Both the Yanks and NYCFC have been saying all along the field meets those standards. Coach Jason Kreis has told reporters several times that this is not something he wishes to discuss, and that it is not a factor in these games.

Nobody from the media has been permitted on the field to measure the dimensions. The width was cut short so that the Yankees’ grounds crew wouldn’t have to tear down and rebuild the pitcher’s mound between games

They probably have a waiver from FIFA in a secret drawer somewhere.

Its such a shite situation, and the angle they get for TV is so flat its difficult to watch the far side of the field.
