Watching the first ever NFL game in Germany was a sight to see but not everybody was happy about it. The Seattle Seahawks and Tampa Bay Buccaneers squared off on grass Sunday when they played one another in Munich, Germany.
However, players from the two teams were not happy about field conditions.
Seahawks linebacker Bruce Irvin, an 11-year veteran, tweeted that the field in Allianz Stadium was “terrible.”
“The NFL made us fly 10 hours to play on a terrible ass field like that s—s Krazy,” Irvin tweeted.
The meeting between the Seahawks and Buccaneers marked the first NFL game in Germany, part of the league’s increasing effort to expand its footprint abroad.
The field conditions were evident Bucs running back Leonard Fournette tried to throw a pass to Brady, who slipped and fell. The pass was intercepted by Seahawks cornerback Tariq Woolen.

Commissioner Roger Goodell announced Saturday that the league will host “at least” four more games in Germany through 2025.
Geno Smith completed 26 of 34 passes for 275 yards with two touchdowns and one interception in the loss.
Brady, who threw for 258 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Sunday’s 21-16 win over the Seahawks in Munich, Germany, has endured a challenging year both on and off the field.
For now, he will focus on his team’s two-game winning streak.
