Packers-Eagles | Playing field conditions in Brazil is slipping around

on Sako Barkley's First Carry with the Philadelphia Eagles a moment Eagles fans had waited for all off season he slipped on the turf in Brazil and fell down for a 5 yard loss he wasn't the only player slipping on the turf at Arena Corinthians in souo the NFL hyped up the Eagles Green Bay Packers game in Brazil the first regular season game in South America but slipping and sliding on the turf became one of the stories as people found the correct streaming service to watch the game Barkley slips on his first Eagles carry Packers receiver Christian Watson slipped a couple times in the first quarter including ones when he was in the end zone for a potential touchdown other players looked very unsteady as they tried to cut on a play Early in the second quarter Packer's running back Emanuel Wilson broke a 14 yd run stopped to cut and his feet slid about a yard as he fell on the seat of his pan dot everyone seemed to notice the issues with the field including former NFL star JJ Watt and LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers the game came down to the final play and in relief of an injured Jordan laugh backup Malik willly slipped while in the pocket and ended up getting sacked by Zack bour the Eagles won 34-29 the start of the game a matchup between two of the NFL's most talented teams seemed disjointed in many ways maybe it was the rare Friday night kickoff or an announcing crew that's way more familiar to college football fans than NFL fans or just the unusual setting for the game the seemingly awful field conditions didn't help the level of play it sent both teams scrambling on the sideline to get on the right cleats to deal with the turf do whatever you got to do change cleats but it has been a problem for sure Packers coach Matt laugher said on peacock at the end of the first half the NFL wants to grow its game internationally and to do so it sends teams to other countries to play often those games are in stadiums that either never or rarely host American football games you think the multi-billion dollar league would make sure it's not putting its players on supper playing surfaces in the process thank you for watching if you have any suggestions or complaints feel free to comment below if you haven't subscribe to the channel yet do so now and turn on notifications to receive alerts as soon as the video is released
