For what reason do Herediano, la Liga, Santos and Brujas need FIFA approval for their fields?

    Hey everyone,

    I saw this article on La Nación’s website about Herediano, la Liga, Santos and Brujas all wanting to get FIFA approval to host international games on their home fields (besides Saprissa renewing its deal before October):

    http://www.nacion.com/ln_ee/2010/febrero/02/deportes2247086.html

    Since, to my mind, it would be unlikely that they would pay up for the FIFA endorsement without planning to make use of it sometime in the next two years, I just wanted to know: do any of you have an idea as to why they’re going through with it?

    Don't have an opinion on the poll, but it would give me one more reason to visit Costa Rica.

    Sorry for the off topic wandering...

    Brujas is the champion, so they get to play at least one game of the next champions cup, so they need it
