Kindly post photograph of whole plant also. The leaves seems to be broad. 
However, we have to see the lower leaves too. Also post photo of the 
inflorescence when it is completely out of the sheath. We have to check 
whether the branches are verticillate or not. Also see whether the root 
system is rhizomatous, stoloniferous, etc. or whether it is found in 
isolated culms or growing gregariously. The broad leaf makes me think it is 
different from S.halepense. Also see whether the sheath nodes are hairy or 
not, if possible take a photo of the node also. A close up macro of a 
spikelet pair would be desirable. For this, you can break a branch of the 
inflorescence, spread out the spikelets with your hand and then take a 
photo so that pedicelled and sessile spikelets can be distinguished.
