This is the second largest stadium in the African continent as it only sits behind the FNB Stadium in terms of total capacity. However, the 86, capacity of the Borg El-Arab Stadium makes it the largest in Egypt by a comfortable margin. Unlike many other stadiums of its kind, it has been air-conditioned in many places so that the extreme weather conditions in this part of the world are combated with great efficiency.
The designers have put in a massive effort to make sure that the stadium offers every type of facility — including two sub-stadiums with a capacity of spectators. The Egypt national football team call this stadium as the home. It recently made it to the history books after becoming the ground from where Egypt qualified to the World Cup for the first time since Apart from a football pitch, the Borg El-Arab Stadium also comes with running tracks and other sections for the Olympic Game activities.
You can just imagine the noise in this stadium too when players such as Mo Salah take to the field to represent the Egyptian national team. The Malaysian national football team may not be high in the FIFA rankings, but that does not stop the national team from building one of the largest football stadiums in the world. The Bukit Jalil National Stadium, which was built at a cost of RM million, is a colossus that can hold more than 87, spectators.
It is the largest stadium of its kind in Southeast Asia. Therefore, it does not come as a surprise that it has hosted many other events apart from the games of the Malaysia national team. This multisport venue comes with a roof and it is largely constructed out of reinforced concrete. Despite being relatively new, major renovation works have already been carried out and they have brought in much-needed features like new facilities and LED lighting. More features are in the works as retractable seats, retractable roof, and lifestyle facilities will also be included in the stadium as part of the upcoming renovation works.
As you can probably tell from the photo, this stadium is pretty high too, so with the retractable roof in full flow — this must make the stadium incredibly loud, vibrant, and awesome to play in. One of the major reasons behind the stadium being steeped in history is the prestige of having hosted two World Cup finals — and Estadio Azteca is also widely regarded to have hosted the game between Italy and West Germany in Estadio Azteca can go on to add more feathers in its cap considering that it is in line to host the games at the World Cup The stadium has not shown its age even now, as frequent renovation works have consistently added new features like LED panels and new leisure spaces.
In recent times, the addition of executive boxes has reduced the capacity down to the 87,s. If you were to contemplate visiting any stadium in Mexico, this one would definitely rank highly on the list — for all reasons previously mentioned. Wembley is an iconic destination for football fans in England. There was a lot of scepticism when the English Football Association decided to take down the Wembley, which is regarded as the home of football, in favour of a new ground.
Despite the extravagant cost, the Wembley justified its image as one of the premier football destinations. The capacity of the Camp Nou once eclipsed , for the World Cup finals, but due to changes in laws regarding standing in stadiums, it has now been reduced.
You either love them or you hate them. Opened in , the home of the Red Devils now seats over 75, fans—after its renovation—and is England's largest club stadium. With former manager Sir Alex Ferguson recently leaving his post, Manchester United look set to embark on a new era. One thing's for sure, however: Fans from around the world will continue flocking to the cosmopolitan Old Trafford to take in the magic of the stadium and to watch one of football's most successful clubs.
It is the only stadium across Europe that is able to change colours to reflect which of the two teams are playing—red for Bayern and blue for Munich. The stadium has been a huge hit with both sets of fans thanks to the fans being closer to the pitch—something that caused an issue at the previous site, the Olympiastadion, which had a running track around the pitch that made for a rather poor atmosphere.
The relatively new Allianz Arena will surely make a name for itself as one of the greatest stadiums in world football for years to come. Wembley Stadium is as well-connected as you would expect: three tube lines, the Bakerloo, Jubilee, and Metropolitan line, all stop close to the stadium, though most will choose the quick Metropolitan.
The Emirates Stadium is equally well connected with both the frequent Piccadilly and Victoria lines running past the ground. Prepare for some post-match queues for the train station though. Very easy to reach, and no worries about queuing after the match. Otherwise, catch a train from London Bridge station.
Catch a train from London Bridge or Waterloo station for the minute journey. Depending on where the stadium is located you may then need to add a short walk, a long walk, or a bus ride to your journey. In all cases, within and outside London, always make sure to check your journey beforehand as there are regularly changes to the service on the weekends due to maintenance works.
The first two have most intercontinental flights, while the last three and Gatwick have most low-cost flights. Most people will therefore decide to pick any hotel in London that they consider good value and fits within their budget, and from there make their way to the match and back. In central London, both Stamford Bridge and to a lesser extent Craven Cottage are located at close distance from the South Kensington and Earls Court areas that are packed with tourist hotels.
Of course, you will always be able to find an apartment rental through the likes of Airbnb if you must stay close. Outside of London, the choice of hotels will likely be a bit more limited, but there will nearly always be the odd hotel in the local city centre or a roadside hotel not too far from the stadium.
