Estadio Azteca

Estadio Azteca is more than just a stadium - it is a cathedral of football, having hosted two World Cup finals and countless legendary moments in the sport's history. Located in Mexico City at an altitude of 2,240 meters, this iconic venue has witnessed some of football's greatest performances, including Diego Maradona's 'Goal of the Century' in 1986 and Pelé's Brazil winning their third World Cup in 1970.

World Cup 2026 will mark the historic third time Estadio Azteca hosts World Cup matches, making it the only stadium ever to participate in three separate World Cup tournaments. The passionate Mexican supporters create an atmosphere unlike any other, with the stadium's steep stands bringing fans incredibly close to the action. The altitude presents a unique challenge for visiting teams, adding an extra dimension to every match played here.

Recently renovated to modern standards while preserving its historic character, Estadio Azteca remains the heart of Mexican football. The stadium's rich history, combined with Mexico City's vibrant culture and passionate football tradition, ensures that matches here will be unforgettable experiences for players and fans alike.
