" Both KIF Örebro and ÖSK Fotboll have been critical of the condition of the artificial turf. Olivia and the club, which had a total of six knee injuries last year, have wondered what could have caused them. " The specific condition issues with the artificial turf at Behrn Arena causing concern have not been detailed.
