Tuesday marked the beginning of the final 30 days before the start of the World Cup at the stadium.<\/p>\n<p>By then, the name on the building will change. The facility will be known as Los Angeles Stadium throughout the tournament and the new FIFA regulated grass field will have finally been installed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe completed two phases of construction,\u201d SoFi Stadium\u2019s Senior VP of Facility and Campus Operation Otto Benedict said. \u201cTo create more auxiliary space and wider pitch dimensions. This included the removal of corner seats to meet FIFA\u2019s specifications for width requirements. We have installed a sophisticated irrigation system, specifically designed to maintain a FIFA World Cup regulation pitch.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cConstruction began on April 13, immediately following our Monster Jam event.\u201d<\/p>\nOn Tuesday, the field was still dirt, with the new grass field en route from the state of Washington on refrigerated trucks. Benedict added that it would be installed \u201cover a two-day period.\u201d\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ll lay the sod early morning tomorrow (Wednesday) morning, we\u2019ll do a portion of the field and we\u2019ll repeat that same process for the next day so that we\u2019re taking in small amounts at a time and it spends the least amount of time it can in the truck. After that, the field becomes FIFA\u2019s. They are dictating who\u2019s going out there, what\u2019s happening. If they want us to do a mow pattern a certain way, we will do that. The amendments, the irrigation, when the grow lights go on, when they come off, all of that is going to be in collaboration with FIFA and their team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ll sleep later.\u201d<\/p> <div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Benedict said that they removed a total of 400 seats (100 in each corner).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe design was to make it look intentional and when we convert back, we\u2019ll be able to put those same seats back in. We worked with FIFA in their design needs, as well as our architects, to create a seamless, very easy-to-convert system, which already exists in the building.\u201d<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/siliconvalleymovingpost.com\/?p=5696\">At 7-foot-1, Gideon Marzouk helps Tarbut V\u2019Torah reach CIF-SS boys volleyball final<\/a><\/p>\n<p>After the USMNT\u2019s game June 12, SoFi will host Iran-New Zealand on June 15, Switzerland-Bosnia and Herzegovina on June 18, Belgium-Iran on June 21, USMNT-Turkey on June 25, a pair of Round of 32 games (June 28 and July 2) and a quarterfinal (July 10).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe L.A.
