We are already in WORLD FOOTBALL MOOD! So, why not write
today about WORLD FOOTBALL ?!
What are the 2018 World Cup stadiums? Since it became known
that Russia would host the 2018 World Cup, the Russian government went to work
first to decide what the host cities would be and then to build the soccer
stadiums where the 64th World Cup will be held. matches to decide which will be
the champion of the world in the king sport, these stadiums have been remodeled
or built.
Most of the stadiums that we will see below did not exist
before Russia was declared as the host of the 2018 World Cup, with the
exception of the Volgograd Central Stadium, the Luzhniki Olympic Stadium and
the Yekaterinburg Stadium that already existed.
All Stadiums of Russia 2018
Without further ado, this is the list of the 12 stadiums
where the magic of football will happen, there will be fouls, penalties, yellow
and red cards, dramas, suffering and joy for the fans of the participating
teams, but also for the spectators who will bow down. for your favorite team.
LUZHNİKİ STADIUM
The Luzhniki Stadium allows more than 80 thousand people to
sit and have a roof in its facilities. It was built a long time ago but a few
years ago it was renovated.
It is part of a sports complex called "Luzhniki Olympic
Complex". And we forgot to mention that it is located in Moscow, the
capital of the country.
OTKRYTİE ARENA
In Moscow we can find two of the twelve stadiums that are
distributed in eleven places of the country. The second is this, the Spartak
stadium as the locals know it because it is the home of the Spartak Moscow
team.
STADIUM OF SAINT PETERSBURG
It is located on an island surrounded by several rivers in
the city of St. Petersburg. Its official name is due to the name of the island
and its construction is exclusively due to the 2018 World Cup.
STADIUM OF NİZHNİ NÓVGOROD
Located in the city of Nizhny Novgorod. It began its
construction in 2016, being one of the stadiums whose construction began very
close before the start of the 2018 World Cup.
SAMARA ARENA
Its construction was planned at first to the south of the
city but later it was changed to the north of it. Like the other stadiums we
have seen so far, the Samara Stadium has the highest category of UEFA, the four
stars or category four.
FİSHT STADİUM
This sports venue is multipurpose and we heard about it for
the first time, at the Sochi Olympic Games, since the city hosted them. It is
very close to the shore of the Black Sea, allowing the public to see the sea on
one side and the mountains on the other side. In addition, it was one of the
stadiums used in the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup, one year before the start of
the Russia 2018 World Cup.
KALİNİNGRADO STADIUM
This venue was designed specifically for the World Cup,
despite the fact that there was already another stadium in the city. In order
that Kaliningrad has a relatively small population, after the football world
finishes the seating capacity of the stadium will be reduced to 25 thousand.
The facilities are located on the banks of the Pregolya River.
ROSTOV ARENA
The second most southern stadium in Russia, surpassed only
by Sochi. It is located in the city of Rostov-on-Don.
KAZAN ARENA
Its construction began the same year in which Russia was
confirmed as the host of the world cup and its construction time took three
years, being officially opened in 2013. It has a parking for 4,500 vehicles and
is on the side of the river Kazanka.
Something very interesting is that the stadium has free WIFI
internet in all its facilities, being one of the first in the world to do this.
MORDOVİA ARENA
This is perhaps one of the most striking stadiums among the
stadiums of the 2018 World Cup, its colors red, white and a bit of blue is in
reference to the flag of the region where it is located, the Republic of
Mordovia that belongs to the Russian Federation. After the World Cup, the
number of seats will be reduced to 28,000.
EKATERİMBURGO ARENA
It has existed since 1957 when it was inaugurated, but
because of the World Cup, the facilities have been re-built and its spectator
capacity increased.
VOLGOGRADO ARENA
Its popular name among locals the "Rotor
Coliseum", was built a long time ago and is multipurpose, example of it is
the athletics track that surrounds the engramillado. For the tournament its
seating capacity will double and when the world finishes it will return to the
normal number of seats, 32,120 spaces. For the total renovation the stadium was
demolished, beginning the works in 2014.
