Why does the soccer ground have stripes?
The alternating dark stripes that you see on the football field are not the colors of two different grasses. In fact, the whole yard has only one type of grass.
The secret lies in cutting grass and lighting effects. The alternating dark and light green grass strips are passed by the cutter and come back in two directions, weeding in opposite directions.
There is also a way to cut the grass so that the football field is caro or spiral. However, in matches, people prefer the straight form because it helps to see clearly the course line. Television stations like it because it is easier to estimate the distance.
