"The latest photo of the field at the Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium (SUGBK). Currently, field revitalization work is being carried out," wrote the caption of the post by X account @FaktaSepakbolaPengamat, a football observer and former coach of the Indonesian Futsal National Team, Justinus Lhaksana or commonly known as Coach Justin, also commented on the post."

According to him, the GBK stadium should not use manual methods like in the fields as a modern stadium. Justinus claims that an ideal modern stadium should use rolled grass that can be dismantled and installed instead of being planted manually.

"The modern stadium uses rolled grass, just lay it down, this is not a field that needs to be planted. Hasn't the GBK management ever gone abroad for benchmarking studies???? Gosh," wrote coach Justin. According to the Instagram account @love_gbk, several pictures of the renovation of GBK Stadium's grass have caught the attention of the public.

The following is the translation of the 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "The grass improvement was carried out after receiving numerous criticisms following the use of the Indonesian National Team in the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers on June 6 and 11, 2024. The SUGBK management finally conducted revitalization of the main field, just like when welcoming the U-20 World Cup in 2023."

The managing party revealed that in their work, the revitalization of the grass layer involves a series of processes that involve several stakeholders, teams, and experienced experts from last year's U-20 World Cup. Some improvements start with laboratory inspections, sterilization of planting media, leveling of planting media, grass planting, grow-in process and intensive care, functional testing, and visual field monitoring.
