well… it’s Romania! anything is possible here and by anything, i really mean anything! ok, maybe we’re a slightly smaller but enhanced version of Mother Russia!
taci in pula mea… ce versiune a mamei rusia? suntem o tara latina si nu avem nimic in comun cu rusia. Stfu Romania has nothing in common with russia, we are latins and nothing links us with them.
Eh, don’t be stupidly paranoid. I wouldn’t go so far as to blindly negate the obvious. You’d be amazed at the numerous (including language) similarities.
I would confess though: that pitch would make one heck of a football game! How do you play flank right? Where is the whole thing located anyway?
The language similarities? Are you high? Romanian is basically a romance language. If you understand Latin you can understand most of what Unu said above! In fact, there isn’t a single word with a Slavic root in his whole comment.
I thought that too at first.. but then I realised that the score board at the back is facing skywards. If you turned the field 45 degrees.. it would be crooked.
Football is called so, because it is played ON foot, as opposed to horseback. Therefore American Football, Soccer and Gailec Football all can claim to be ‘football’. Only in countries where there is a more popular game, played on foot, is ‘soccer’ used, to distinguish between the games in conversation.
I’d like to play with it rotated 90 degrees around. I’ll defend the bottom goal. Also, they should bow up the sides to make it more funnel-shaped. I’ll play alone, and Manchester can take the other side. That way, I won’t have to give them more than a single-digit handicap.
Wow, making fun of African nations, Asian nations, and Australia must have gone out of style. I see it’s all Romania, Ukraine, and Poland now (with an occasional helping of Russia).
Now come on … there is no way anybody is going to convince me that this is real ..
…… not in Romania , Transylvania ….
………………… heck not even in the US
(for those that thing the US is the only advanced place in the world )
That’s not a fail. It is a major win. I hope that by now you finally realized that this was a publicity stunt. And considering by the numbers of suckers who fell for it, quite successful!
You really do have to climb high to achieve something.
why do I get the feeling that the picture is taken in Romania?
Why do I get the feeling that the picture was taken in France? =)
Can’t be Romania, the road is paved
well, I guess you’re right there lol
although not all of them are unpaved…
You’re right. For example airports are paved…
what airports?
WAHAHAHAHA
honey, we do have normal streets, you know. Shut up if you don`t know what you`re talking about
I have the same feeling that’s in Romania
)
Romania – the end of choice, as the guys from hapyfish say
for those of you who mock Romania
I’ve never been to Romania, but I’ve seen pictures of some absolutely stunning buildings and scenery there! I’d love to visit!
It’ll be a match steeped with excitement!
It is a son of a pitch.
Whoops, sorry guys, looks like another throw-in.
“GOAAA- Oh, wait, it’s flown into ongoing cars again. Do you think we’ll ever see some points won here, Brian?”
Ram it off!
But I’m baaaad at that!
No! I would never pull the wool over your eyes!
Sorry! I wasn’t trying to be cheesy there!
ok this has gone on whey too long!
Yes it is getting chessey.
well… it’s Romania! anything is possible here
and by anything, i really mean anything! ok, maybe we’re a slightly smaller but enhanced version of Mother Russia!
I should really visit Romania.
You should really visit my netherlands, if you know what I mean baby
What would you know, Romania actually discovered a way to make soccer interesting to watch!
Oh, sacrilegious person, you should die -.-
Oh please, you’d have a heart attack if a woman showed any amorous interest in you.

hehe, watch this
Oh my! *moves to Romania*
i hate romania now
i rely hate romania now and russians are awesome they talk cool even though i live somewhere else…
Well if Russia is your mother, then Romania must suck really badly.

Im frenchie so im the more latin language that you can find today and I dont understand a f***ing word listed in his comment !
More like a retarded version of mother Russia.
What companies have sponsored that?
Damn Gravity!!!
What the Hill?!
The competition looks pretty steep.
Czech out this mans punning skills.
Now thats an adapting win in my book
This is why people with 1 leg significantly shorter then the other, don’t usually construct soccer fields.
Is her name Eileen?
There’s a high chance that’s what her name is.
Does she tip well?
They even have sponsors!
Of course they have sponsors, they knew it’d be here sooner or later.
that’s genius…
It’s Ukraine. This field it’s just an ad for upcoming Euro 2012 here.
It’s actually where several of the matches will be played. Yup, this is the best they can muster up in Ukraine. Not much better in Poland either.
FOOLS!
But if you dont mix them all the alcohol says at the top :/
Fail? That’s a soccer win
Wrong. It would’ve been a win if the field was flipped 90 degrees.
Meh.. I’d say 30 to 40 degrees.
I think “someone” meant if you rotated the field 90 degrees… then the ball would always run into one team’s goal.
Its a fail ‘coz no one is playing at the time, if they photographed this with people playing on it then its definitely a win
If you trip over, there is a fair chance you will get ran over by a truck.
Just when you thought soccer couldn’t get any crazier.
Has anyone thought that the road could be on a 45° angle?
Nah. There’d be a more area in view toward the horizon beyond the pitch.
It’s possible that the field is indeed level and the ground beyond it drops off as a steep cliff.
That would be interesting.
I thought that too at first.. but then I realised that the score board at the back is facing skywards. If you turned the field 45 degrees.. it would be crooked.
A soccer game, with a chance of a brutal death by oncoming traffic, that a soccer game im willing to watch!!!
wish I noticed that before I made my comment.. =(
Unless the field itself was on a hill with a steep slope…
I did… but the signage along the edge is correctly horizontal. So… it seems legit.
Same with the giant billboard in the back.
Or scoreboard. I think I left my brain back in bed today.
Better than nothing xD
“soccer field fail”
Good sir, I think you will find that this is in fact a football pitch fail.
It’s soccer to the US, Japan and several other nations. Football in the US is played with heavy gear and a rugby ball.
Wrong. The frase “several other nations” is an overstatement. Just a few nations known futbol as soccer.
BTW, Foot+ball = a game when players use their feet to hit a ball. So, thats “soccer”.
Football is called so, because it is played ON foot, as opposed to horseback. Therefore American Football, Soccer and Gailec Football all can claim to be ‘football’. Only in countries where there is a more popular game, played on foot, is ‘soccer’ used, to distinguish between the games in conversation.
so you saying handball is played on hands
and then, basketball is played on baskets
“football is played on foot” – as opposed to handball that is played walking on your hands ?
Looks more like a hockey field imo…
Nope, no backboards on the goals.
I wanna play on that field!!
yeah, seems fun to me
It’s fake! Döh!!
I believe that this is basically down to a clever camera angle.
For a challenge.
Scotland, always a struggle.
so much pun
just play that ball
)
I can’t think of anything clever to go at that with.
I have heard of table roll when the pool table is out of level, can’t say I have heard of field roll though.
Maybe the field is horizontal and not the road..
exactly, the picture was taken to make it look like the field is uphill. But it is a level surface inside an oval racetrack!
If that is the case:
i) Why is there no trace of the other side of the track
ii) If that were the case, that scoreboard would be facing skyward
I accidentied my post
*whaps K@ with a slightly-used herring for incompetence*
Like it matters what the field looks like, it will just be a 0-0 snoozefest anyway. Watching soccer is like having AIDS in my eyes.
What is this “soccer” you’re talking about? Is it a new name for American football?
:words of wisdom: u must climb high 2 achieve you soccer goal……HEY GOALIE!!!!DONT FAIL LIKE “SOMEBODY” DID IN THE WORLD CUP!!
(usa rulez
Well that will never work. I say you should turn it into a miniature golf course. Or maybe a skating rink.
e eu reclamo da quadra aqui do condominio hahahaha
art win
Ha! It’s in Ukraine =)
It’s art, and it’s not the only one of its kind.
Also, I feel lots of prejudice against some Eastern European countries.
“I WANT TO BE THE GOALKEEPER!”
Here at “Unfair Field” We don’t discriminate… We hate everyone equally and stop EVERYONE from scoring!
(On and Off the field)
this is in Romania. The land of EPIC FAIL.
you mean the land of epic win. the land of epic fail is the USA. don’t mistake them
yes, thats my f country…Borat is a joke compared whit what is in my country.
well they are gonna have 1 hard soccer game. XD
wtf i soo fail XD
It’s a commercial. I think it’s in Ukraine (either that or Slovakia or Moldova). I’ve driven past it a month ago.
All “straight shots” will be parabollic!
I played on one similar to this when I was younger. Obviously not this extreme. But I remember it being bad.
Must be the Old Trafford.
you guys sure this isn’t just an illusion?
They should have oriented it the other way. That way, the home team could be like, “Remember guys, the enemy’s gate is down!”
Do they have to have a man at each corner of the goal before the ball can go through?
This is actually in the Ukraine, I drove past it this morning, it’s supposed to be an ad for the upcoming Euro 2012.
Still funny nonetheless.
once again, romania is the laughing stock of the world…you’re lucky you were born somewhere else :-<
That field would build so many leg muscles! lol
Car!
I think that it is a chilien field…
it’s essentially a joke.. (at the O’higgins park)
I’d like to play with it rotated 90 degrees around. I’ll defend the bottom goal. Also, they should bow up the sides to make it more funnel-shaped. I’ll play alone, and Manchester can take the other side. That way, I won’t have to give them more than a single-digit handicap.
Definitely not a level playing field…
Is field phantom-foul referee expects US to play on
Bend it like gravity
Is it within the realm of logic to think this photo may have been…”enhanced”…?
It must be just the odd angle of taking the photo, it’s simply physically impossible to be stupid enough to make something like that.
Wow, making fun of African nations, Asian nations, and Australia must have gone out of style. I see it’s all Romania, Ukraine, and Poland now (with an occasional helping of Russia).
No no, all of the above still fail. But why risk verbal abuse burn-out? Take a break and poke fun at Eastern Europe instead.
At least it wasn’t facing 90 degrees another way. Now THAT would be fail…or maybe a good way for a single team to practice.
At least it wasn’t facing 90 degrees another way. THAT would be fail…or maybe a good way for a single team to practice.
They just tried to compensate for a gravitational anomaly there. Duuuh!
Clearly a win, since it’s just a joke/art
How the f….
it’s FOOTBALL, not soccer!
thats a football field!
omg that road is tilted wtf?
@ Ukraine, Zakarpatska oblast, road to Mukachevo city
Now come on … there is no way anybody is going to convince me that this is real ..
…… not in Romania , Transylvania ….
………………… heck not even in the US
(for those that thing the US is the only advanced place in the world )
This isn’t fail, they’re just playing soccer on hard mode.
They need some cardboard.
now with some people
http://media1.break.com/dnet/media/2009/5/71%20quality%20soccer%20field.jpg
you happy?
it could possibly be just one of those artistic things
That’s not a fail. It is a major win. I hope that by now you finally realized that this was a publicity stunt. And considering by the numbers of suckers who fell for it, quite successful!
Enjoy.
maybe THIS is why that british goalie failed!
Of all the pics and not one person said, SHOPPED!
I belive the guy who captured this on his/her camera has just tilted his/her camera to make a optic illusion. Prove me wrong
This in in Ukraine, it’s like a monument for EURO-2012 Ukraine-Poland
this is a clip from the movie..by the way i forget the name of the movie…
Car… … … … …
Game On!!!
Wow, this might ACTUALLY make the sport WATCHABLE, especially if they have to go get it when it goes out of bounds.
You do realize that its a picture trick and nothing more right?
Oh so its the road thats at a steep slant and this must be the end of the world too as we only see sky beyond the field, ok makes sense now…. =.=
Saddlepoint Field: you’re doing it wrong.
I think this kind of ground best suited in shaolin soccer, where ball hardly touched the ground.
Missing Romanian soccer a lot, especiallt Hagi was my dream player with real skill on hit foot
