Finland vs FC Espoo Wed Oct 5th, Leppävaara

[otyikondo]

No, it's not on TV. Not even on Sky. But the national side are playing a warm-up game against FC Espoo at 16.30 on Wednesday afternoon at the ground in Leppävaara, just to give the players some match practice ahead of the Romania and Czech Republic qualifiers.

By rights, the likes of Forssell ought to get half a dozen goals against 2nd Div. Finnish opposition, and Hyypiä will have a chance to recover from the traumas of last weekend against Chelsea.

Tickets unlikely to be very expensive, given the circs. If it's a nice afternoon, it's an outing of sorts.

Train to Leppävaara then head northwest.
