During the World Cup, AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, is one of the venues hosting the most matches in this tournament, with nine games scheduled there throughout the competition.
Today, Argentina will face already-eliminated Jordan in the final group-stage match, with Scaloni leading the team as Messi and his teammates wrap up their group stage here.
AT&T Stadium is the home of the Dallas Cowboys and normally uses artificial turf. To host the World Cup, natural grass was temporarily installed for the tournament, along with turf heating and lighting equipment. The venue features a retractable roof that opens and closes in about 12 minutes; when natural light is insufficient, supplemental lighting is used to maintain the pitch, giving it a pink visual appearance that is not an intentional design by FIFA or the organizers.
A giant screen spanning more than 1,000 square meters hangs above the field, a signature feature of major U.S. sports stadiums. The screen was once hit by the ball during an NFL Dallas Cowboys game, and the referee ordered a replay per the rules. The stadium has a regular capacity of 80,000, expandable to 100,000.
