Hello everyone!
I hope you are doing wonders on this great day. Today I will continue talking about the list that I am sharing daily with the best stadiums and historical sites in the world.
Today he added to the list the Emirates Stadium
Emirates Stadium (known as Ashburton Grove before the sponsorship of Emirates and as Arsenal Stadium for UEFA competitions), is a football stadium located in the Holloway neighborhood in the city of London, England, with a capacity of 60,260 people. England's fourth largest football stadium after Wembley, Old Trafford and Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. It is owned by the Arsenal Football Club of the Premier League.
It was inaugurated in the summer of 2006 in a friendly match Arsenal Football Club - Ajax Amsterdam as a tribute to the Dutch player Dennis Bergkamp. It was created as a new Arsenal stadium to replace the old Highbury Stadium, in which a residential complex has now been built, respecting the exterior façade and the green areas of the field.
It has capacity for 60,361 people, the pitch has an area of 105x68 meters and its construction cost about 390 million pounds sterling, that is, 581 million euros. The stadium was designed by the company HOK Sport, which also designed the Estadio da Luz de Lisboa or the New Wembley Stadium. His name is due to a contract since 2006 for 15 years with Emirates Airlines. When the contract ends, the stadium will be called ‘Rosa and Nato’ in honor of the first owners of the club. In 2007, Sevilla played their first UEFA Champions League match at Emirates Stadium.
