Love the stadiums here. So fitting to the country. It just looks and feels so much better when watching a game. You can also see the great environment in the background with cities or forests, etc. Great video.
Barracas Central shouldn't play in their stadium because the minimum capacity for 1st division stadiums is 15.000 people, but it's the AFA President's team so he doesn't care. PS: thank god you finally did this video
Not only that, their entire rise to the first division was filled with all kinds of shenanigans. This season will be trouble for anyone facing them, expect VAR nonsense, no-calls, cards, absurd penalties, etc.
i really like argentinian stadiums (at least from pictures) even trough their crappy condition. They are just unique, full of colors and the steepness of stands adds to that.
Buenos Aires is the city with the most stadiums in the world. 18 in the city of Buenos Aires and a total of 36 with the neighborhoods of greater Buenos Aires that are not part of the capital district. That stubbornness comes at a great disadvantage, since the clubs sharing stadiums could be bigger and better maintained. The best example is in the Avellaneda neighborhood, which has two stadiums that are 200 meters from each other and are one of the largest, one for 48 thousand people and the other for 52 thousand.
Clubs in Argrntina aren't Ltds nor Corps, but Civil Societies bent on sport. That means the clubs live by direct inpout of their club members (being the fans). Most clubs aren't merely football teams, but they also display men and women's volleyball, basketball, etc. So, Clubs are as rich as their neighbourhoods, but also they're deeply rooted into them. The best kid in the block has a chance to play for his team if he's good enough and being a member he'll always be part of the club. Take for instance, Messi who left Newell's 20 years ago, he's still a Newell's member. So, they're crappy because the clubs aren't big corporations.
@@juanjoseph i know and that was not necessarily a bad thing, that was just stating a fact, they are in a bad conditions, but they are unique, if you look at them, all the different parts of each stadium looks like its glued to the rest
Try watching some league highlights as the season starts last weekend of January. They are in way better shape, except a few like Tigre's or Arsenal's, than on the footage he used here. During the Pandemic most teams took the chance during hiatus and pretty'd them up. And Barracas Central is a shit stadium because the team is very very small and made several promotions in a few years because well, it's the club of AFA's president.
Actually, the body of water by Estadio Monumental is a river, the Rio de Plata. To be fair to you, there is some debate over whether it is an estuary, like Port Jackson in Sydney and Puget Sound, or a river. But it's name is Rio de Plats, so the club isn't really misnamed. 😀 Addition: As i noted below in Spanish, I had no idea that a comment about the fitness of the name "River Plate" would become a discussion of South American geography. 😀

Actually "Gigante de Arroyito" comes from the name that people in the city gave to the neighborhood in which the stadium is located, "Arroyito" (there's a long stream in that neighborhood, besides the river that's seen in the video and that's why the neighborhood is called like that), and Gigante is because the proportions of the stadium where really big for the times when it's been lastly remodeled and gained the form that it maintains until today. Actually the club owns a part of the river and shore behind the stadium, and it's called "Caribe canalla" (canalla is the nickname that was given to the fans of the club due to historical facts).

28 teams. Our league it's weird haha, the federation wants 22 teams in the year 2030. So now the first division has 3 relegations and second division has 2 promotions. One team less per year. But that isn't all. Maybe you'll shit in your pants when you read this: in second division we have THIRTY SEVEN teams. Yes, you read right. 37. Such a mess.
What a great video! The truth is that I am a big fan of the stadiums in Argentina, one day I would like to be able to visit them! Greetings from Moreno, Conurbano Bonaerense.
What a video! Many thanks for this great video @The Wide World of Stadiums! This video shows how passionate are the fans in south america! Btw, even though Independiente is not doing really good these years, but they are the most successful club in South America based on their record number of Copa Libertadores Championship! Newell’s Old Boys stadium was named actually after their former coach (Marcelo Bielsa) who is still alive! What a video! 👏👏👏
A couple of fun facts, the stadiums of archrivals Racing and Independiente are next to each other, in fact, you can see them both at 12:28 (and half of Racing's at 9:28). Also, many of the teams use english words whether they were founded by English immigrants or not because football was considered an English sport. for example, both River and Boca were founded by Genovese immigrants. River is named after the Río de la Plata but in english and Boca is named after the neighborhood but they added "Juniors" in english to make it sound more legit. 3) Lastly, many of the teams from outside of Buenos Aires have their own stadiums but play the most demanded matches in the larger, city-owned stadiums. For example, Estudiantes and Gimnasia de la Plata play in Estadio Único de La Plata, and Talleres, Instituto and Belgrano play in Córdoba's Estadio Mario Alberto Kempes
Hola amigo, en realidad el único de la Ciudad de Córdoba que no juega en su propio estadio es Talleres (ellos juegan en el Mario Alberto Kempes) porque su estadio hace muchísimos años que no está en condiciones y es muy chico. En cambio Belgrano e Instituto juegan en sus propios estadios como este video lo indica, porque están en condiciones para darle uso y para no perder la esencia de poder jugar en el barrio donde nació el Club. Saludos.
@@leonelbustos5798 Lo mismo pasa con Gimnasia que casi nunca quiso jugar en el Único, y Estudiantes que desde que reconstruyó el estadio juega ahí. Los que sí juegan en estadios que no son propios son Godoy Cruz, Talleres y Central Córdoba mayormente, lo mismo Aldosivi antes de descender.

8:58 - Tomas Adolfo Duco Palace. This one is one of the 3 most beatiful stadiums in Argentina by far. This is the only ART DECO design big stadium in the world and many parts of the stadium are made of marble inside. The perfect stadium to see a football match. The view inside is insane. Its a shame that the pictures in this video are very old because today is looking shinny.
Es verdad es hermoso el Ducó fui a ver a River cuando nos prestaron el estadio y es espectacular fui a la popular y después a la platea y se ve muy bien desde cualquier lado, a diferencia del monumental si vas a la popular alta tenes que ir con binoculares
A true footballing nation. Soft spot for La Bombonera and Gigante de Arroyito. You should search videos on YT when they have derby days against Newell's (aka El Classico Rosarino). They have made a banner which covers all the stands!!! The atmosphere is unreal!
La Bombonera no llega a estadio. Le falta un lateral, es chica, de difícil acceso y situada en un lugar peligroso, además tiembla porque no está bien construida. Espero que no haya ninguna tragedia
Love these Argentinian stadiums and the old fashionedness of them.Real character to most of the stadiums not like the boring moderns stadiums in europe.
Huge thanks! I've been waiting for this one for a long time. You did a great job! p.s. please consider a "the stadiums of Buenos Aires (metro area)" please. There are over 50!
San Lorenzo is Pope Francis' team. These stadiums are very much representative of Argentina as a whole: a bit down at the heels and in need of a refurb, but resilient.
I'm so glad that you actually did it! There are many outdated photos and remodeling projects. If you are going to do another South American league, it must be the Chilean one, despite its level.
After the Chilean league video, could a Colombian, Ecuadorian, Paraguayan, or Uruguayan video follow that? Or could a Portuguese, Belgian, Polish, Serbian, Hungarian, Israeli, Ukrainian, Azerbaijani, or Cypriot video follow that? Or could an Egyptian, Moroccan, Tunisian, or Algerian follow that?
The Chilean stadiums are quite good! They are not big in size, but nice modern boutique stadiums suitable to their teams and locations. A lot of them were renovated either in time for the 2008 Women's U-20 World Cup and subsequently the 2015 Copa America.
5:20 an argentinian friend told me its called elephants graveyard because in a decade they nearly won every home game, especially against the big five (boca, river, racing, independiente, san lorenzo)
The first home victory against a giant was against Santos back when Pele was a beast. And because Santos plays in white, they made the joke as if the players were ivory bones.
Sabalero boton sabalero boton sos amigo del globo la puta madre que te parió ( sabalo is a kind of fish, they are called sabaleros. It means that they eat that fish or sell it. Boton means.. something like you are kinda police hehe.. you are friend of Globo. Globo is balloon, the nickname of Huracan.. la puta madre que te parió is like... your fucking mother that gave you bird .. that song is from my team San Lorenzo against Colon. We have a good relationship with the team that is the derby of Colon. That team is Union. Colon is friend of Huracan.. our derby.. I hope you understand my english.
@@leandromt que Gracia cuándo yo estuve en argentina también me hice hincha del San Lorenzo y compré una camiseta que siempre llevo aqui :D Pero que peligro ir a la cancha alla con la villa al lado😅😅
You forgot Estadio Francisco Cabasés of Talleres, like Godoy Cruz, the team uses Mario Alberto Kempes (of Córdoba Province). Talleres plays there for attendance reasons. Anyway, great video!
You must watch videos of "Banderazo de Newell's", it's incredible. The atmosfeere and the suporters. The players goes to the stadium only to see the people, unique in the world.
Gracias por la aclaración en el estadio de Godoy Cruz ya que el Feliciano Gambarte es nuestro estadio(actualmente en construcción) y de mientras jugamos en el Malvinas Argentinas
I am Argentine and I tell you that the stadiums began to be built around 1900, most of them. Some were refurbished, others were not. we do not have the infrastructure of Europe. but if we form the best players in the world
Great players came out of those old and outdated stadiums like: Maradona, Messi, Distefano, Kempes, Tevez, Higuain, Kun Aguero, Riquelme, Ortega, Batistuta, Dybala, Lautaro, Gallardo, Di Maria, Mascherano, Crespo, etc, etc, etc. And also 6 clubs that have won a World Cup (River, Boca, Independiente, Racing, Velez, Estudiantes), in addition to the 3 World Cups won by the national team... Despite the economic problems, a true football country
The great merit of the stadiums in Argentina is that they belong to civil societies, true clubs. There is no club that belongs to a corporation or a private company. This is why there are no million-dollar investments in the stadiums, except when a club is lucky enough to sell a player abroad.
San Lorenzo's former stadium was seized by the last Military Dictatorship in the late 70s (playing their last game there in 1979, and the stadium being demolished in 1981). So San Lorenzo was without a stadium for 14 years, until the Pedro Bidegain was built in 1993. And you wont see them rounding up the stadium, because San Lorenzo already bought back their former stadium's land from Carrefour, so they're coming back home pretty soon. But more recent stadiums were built. Both Independiente and Estudiantes demolished their old stadiums, and started construction from zero on the same land; it wasn't just "reforms".
@@alexhart4763 Not yet, but they bought the land back from Carrefour in 2015. And in August 2021 (yes, six years later) the City of Buenos Aires allowed them by law to build such a structure as a stadium is. So, right now they have everything they need, except money. San Lorenzo is kinda broke at the moment.
@@Albent OK interesting.Have always wanted to watch San Lorenzo, atmosphere looks unreal! Sounds like they need to sell a player for big money to Europe to get this stadium built!
@@alexhart4763 Most players sold to Europe go under 10M (River sold Enzo Fernández for that), so that's hardly enough. I'm an Independiente fan, and we are even more broke than them. We're gonna get a transfer embargo soon unless we pay 6M, and we'd get by selling... like all of our starting players. Right now Benevento, in Serie B, wants to buy our current jewel for 1.5, and we want 2. Colo Colo from Chile wants our main striker (32yo) and their offer 100K (yes, thousands); we want 300K. We can't get 6M even if we tried.
Fancy doing an RFU Championship Rugby video Mr. Stadiums? xx There's only 12 and some are interesting as hell, easy banger I promise ya, love the content
If you could add anything at the end of your videos I wod suggest a brief statement on which your favorite and worst were and why. Many thanks and have a great 2023.
Some people call "La bombonerita" to the Rosario Central Stadium, because is looks like the Bombonera of Boca Juniors. By the other hand, River Plate was called so after the "Río de la Plata", which is the big River near the Stadium. As we know, nowadays there is a debate about if it is really a river or an estuary, but for centuries we have been proud of having the widest river in the World!!!
9:30 The Libertadores de América was actually built from scrap over 10 years ago, the first stadium was indeed built in the 1920s and was the first concrete stadium in the region, but it wasnt refurbished as you say, it was completely demolished in 2008 and gave way to the new and modern english-styled stadium
You all need to know that on this last years with the change of directors of AFA and the pandemic, the number of teams in the Pimera Division has raised to 28 teams from the original 20. That's because new managments of the AFA have the support of tems of lower divisions, in this years a lot of teams of lower divisions have made his way to the top division, so that's the reason because you see so much little humble stadiums with very low capacity and the smallest stadium, in fact, is Barracas Central, the club that is owned by the president of th AFA himself. So a lot of concesions has been made to this little teams to archive the top division.
In one scene of the film El Secreto De Sus Ojos (The Secret In Their Eyes, Academy Award winner), you can see an aerial shot of the Tomás Adolfo Ducó Stadium (Huracán) depicting a football match in the 1970s

I see you focused on the Neighboring country of my birth! Well, they deserve a look after all! Nice job, and I can't wait for your future coverage of the rest of the Leagues in South America! 🇨🇱 😉
When the Perons were in power after the war, they invested a lot of money into projects like these stadiums, which put many people to work. These workers were also paid very well. That is why there are no fewer than three on this list named after one of the Perons
This is useful as I'm reading bits of the book Sightlines where the author visits the grounds of Buenos Aires. I was curious to see the Huracan ground & the stand /exec boxes at Boca. Ta very much.
5:10 Estadio de Colon de Santa Fe, "Cementerio de los elefantes", se puso ese apodo, luego de que el SANTOS de PELE perdiera su largo invicto frente al sabalero, al poco tiempo la selección argentina, también fue derrotada en un amistoso. Aeeeeeeaaaaaa yo soy sabalero!!! Sabalero Sabalero!!!!
The club tends to hang around in the third division or so....thing is the fella the stadium is named after (their ex-president) is now the president of the Argentine Football Association. He's also the son-in-law of the country's primary union leader and mafioso (who just quit being president of Independiente). So they've made their "way up" lately to the top division....with let's call it questionable refereeing decisions and inexplicable sources of funding.
10:00 Obviously its beautiful, its Club Atletico Independiente's stadium, the biggest club of America. 7 Libertadores, Boca has 6. Bochini, Maradona's idol, played for Independiente. Aguante el Rojo wacho
Hello bro, good video, The Brigadier or, Elefant Graveyard, its called from that way, because, all the big teams(River, boca, Estudiantes, San Lorenzo, Racing),Were beaten here, at almost, we have an histroey that we Had Won The Santos Of Pele, and the Argentinian Team, thx for the video, and keep going.
hay que explicarle a este muchacho que en nuestro pais no hay el poder economico como para renovar un estadio de un dia para el otro, es muy dificil hacer una remodelacion grande en poco tiempo sin endeudarse.
El estadio Mario Alberto Kempes no es propiedad del club atlético Talleres, el estadio es del estado de la provincia de Córdoba. El estadio propiedad de Talleres es el Francisco Cabasés. Quería aclararlo para que no quede ese error
Q refacciones el José Maria minella está muy chico 👦 por lo menos hay q agrandaloo a por lo menos 45000 personas porque mardel esta creciendo mucho saludoooos y espero 🙏 😉 se concrete el proyecto buen video
When you see that the stadium has "unique" in its name, it's reffer that its the "only" stadium at that city. Of course the city may have other stadium, like in la plata, where aparte from the estadio único de la plata, you have gimnasia and estudiantes stadiums
This is an interesting video! Are you planning for a video on the Saudi Pro League stadiums? Would a player who entered this World Cup as a player who was not part of any club be the motivation for making the video?
The Mario Alberto Kempes stadium does not belong to talleres, (min 15:38) this club must rent the stadium for each game, because it is a very small club. so they don't have their own stadium.
No soy de Talleres, pero ellos si tienen estadio, le dicen "la boutique" tiene poca capacidad para la cantidad de socios q son por lo tanto la ciudad les alquila el estadio, al igual q con belgrano pero estos si tienen un estadio con "buena" capacidad asi q lo usan para partidos de gran magnitud
Argentina es un país que vive el fútbol. Pero la realidad es que también no ahí muchos equipos con capacidad de hinchas. Y se ve reflejado en los estadios. Aún así creo que ahora muchos estadios se van a empezar a equipar y cambiar muchas de sus fachadas y demás.
4:30 you say this as a joke but this is the actual reason for it, Argentina is a sports country and they do have a cricket national team so this venue can have their games
Me gustó mucho el estadio de Banfield y huracan. Todo el mundo conoce la bombonera de boca juniors o el monumental de river plate. O el de independiente. Pero me gustaron mucho

私のお気に入りはボンボネーラは勿論！ですが、ベロンさんのエステディアンテスLa Plataです！
スタジアムツアーをRUclipsで見ましたがメインスタンドにピッチレベルのレストラン、バックスタンド下に地域の屋内スポーツ施設を入れていて試合のない日も市民に利用されている素晴らしいスタジアムになっています。
I hope Argentina host the World Cup in 2030 with Uruguay
San Lorenzo is Pope Francis' team.
These stadiums are very much representative of Argentina as a whole: a bit down at the heels and in need of a refurb, but resilient.
Dijo nunca nadie.

But I did not see their stadium. The only thing in the aerial shot there was a Carrefour Market!!!!
Cómo vas a tener al papá de ídolo ?? Jajajajajaja
Te most hugly stadium
I'm so glad that you actually did it! There are many outdated photos and remodeling projects. If you are going to do another South American league, it must be the Chilean one, despite its level.
After the Chilean league video, could a Colombian, Ecuadorian, Paraguayan, or Uruguayan video follow that? Or could a Portuguese, Belgian, Polish, Serbian, Hungarian, Israeli, Ukrainian, Azerbaijani, or Cypriot video follow that? Or could an Egyptian, Moroccan, Tunisian, or Algerian follow that?
The Chilean stadiums are quite good! They are not big in size, but nice modern boutique stadiums suitable to their teams and locations. A lot of them were renovated either in time for the 2008 Women's U-20 World Cup and subsequently the 2015 Copa America.
Every stadium has a unique color scheme, thanks for sharing!
Que grande El Gigante de Arroyito en la portada..!!
5:20 an argentinian friend told me its called elephants graveyard because in a decade they nearly won every home game, especially against the big five (boca, river, racing, independiente, san lorenzo)
Santos de Pelé
The first home victory against a giant was against Santos back when Pele was a beast. And because Santos plays in white, they made the joke as if the players were ivory bones.
Sabalero boton sabalero boton sos amigo del globo la puta madre que te parió ( sabalo is a kind of fish, they are called sabaleros. It means that they eat that fish or sell it. Boton means.. something like you are kinda police hehe.. you are friend of Globo. Globo is balloon, the nickname of Huracan.. la puta madre que te parió is like... your fucking mother that gave you bird .. that song is from my team San Lorenzo against Colon. We have a good relationship with the team that is the derby of Colon. That team is Union. Colon is friend of Huracan.. our derby.. I hope you understand my english.
@@leandromt que Gracia cuándo yo estuve en argentina también me hice hincha del San Lorenzo y compré una camiseta que siempre llevo aqui :D Pero que peligro ir a la cancha alla con la villa al lado😅😅

Happy new year Mr. Stadiums 🎉
Happy new year, Harja.
You forgot Estadio Francisco Cabasés of Talleres, like Godoy Cruz, the team uses Mario Alberto Kempes (of Córdoba Province). Talleres plays there for attendance reasons.
Anyway, great video!
Fun fact: there's a rentable coworking space at stadium Jorge Luis Hirschi. You can work there with a beautiful view of the inside of the stadium
Hi, I am from Argentina and I want to tell you, that you made a great video about our stadiums. Aguante estudiantes de la plata!
No, aguante Gimnasia
You must watch videos of "Banderazo de Newell's", it's incredible. The atmosfeere and the suporters. The players goes to the stadium only to see the people, unique in the world.
The stadium’s of Argentina are awesome, greeting from laferrere
Jajajaja you're great aussie friend, loved the video. Greetings from the west south
The Mario Alberto Kempes stadium does not belong to Talleres, it is a stadium in the province and they have their stadium in another part of the city
Gracias por la aclaración en el estadio de Godoy Cruz ya que el Feliciano Gambarte es nuestro estadio(actualmente en construcción) y de mientras jugamos en el Malvinas Argentinas
3:25 fantastic!!! The stadiun of players of Diego Maradona and Román Riquelme! 2 of he tops players oh history! Thanks!!!
can you do the belgian pro league?
you make great videos!
would love to see you do the Hong Kong Premier League, there arent a lot of stadiums so it'll be a relatively easier video :P
That's a good idea. I will look into it.
I am Argentine and I tell you that the stadiums began to be built around 1900, most of them. Some were refurbished, others were not. we do not have the infrastructure of Europe. but if we form the best players in the world
Gotta love the razor wire on top of the fences! 😅
Great players came out of those old and outdated stadiums like: Maradona, Messi, Distefano, Kempes, Tevez, Higuain, Kun Aguero, Riquelme, Ortega, Batistuta, Dybala, Lautaro, Gallardo, Di Maria, Mascherano, Crespo, etc, etc, etc.
And also 6 clubs that have won a World Cup (River, Boca, Independiente, Racing, Velez, Estudiantes), in addition to the 3 World Cups won by the national team... Despite the economic problems, a true football country
The great merit of the stadiums in Argentina is that they belong to civil societies, true clubs. There is no club that belongs to a corporation or a private company. This is why there are no million-dollar investments in the stadiums, except when a club is lucky enough to sell a player abroad.
or when the fans give money to the team and the presidents do not steal it so they can invest in the infraestructure
Gracias por mostrar el mejor estadio y el más lindo al final del video🥰⬜🟦⬜💪💪
💙🤍💙
@@lucaschinocca1979 From Melbourne Australia, Dale Velez! One day I'll come to Buenos Aires and watch Velez play a match in that beautiful stadium!
@@markcroydon3195 You chose the Best stadium to come 😁🙌

Match last night
San Lorenzo's former stadium was seized by the last Military Dictatorship in the late 70s (playing their last game there in 1979, and the stadium being demolished in 1981). So San Lorenzo was without a stadium for 14 years, until the Pedro Bidegain was built in 1993. And you wont see them rounding up the stadium, because San Lorenzo already bought back their former stadium's land from Carrefour, so they're coming back home pretty soon.
But more recent stadiums were built. Both Independiente and Estudiantes demolished their old stadiums, and started construction from zero on the same land; it wasn't just "reforms".
Are SL building a new stadium on their old patch then?
@@alexhart4763 Not yet, but they bought the land back from Carrefour in 2015. And in August 2021 (yes, six years later) the City of Buenos Aires allowed them by law to build such a structure as a stadium is.
So, right now they have everything they need, except money. San Lorenzo is kinda broke at the moment.
@@Albent OK interesting.Have always wanted to watch San Lorenzo, atmosphere looks unreal! Sounds like they need to sell a player for big money to Europe to get this stadium built!
@@alexhart4763 Most players sold to Europe go under 10M (River sold Enzo Fernández for that), so that's hardly enough.
I'm an Independiente fan, and we are even more broke than them. We're gonna get a transfer embargo soon unless we pay 6M, and we'd get by selling... like all of our starting players. Right now Benevento, in Serie B, wants to buy our current jewel for 1.5, and we want 2. Colo Colo from Chile wants our main striker (32yo) and their offer 100K (yes, thousands); we want 300K.
We can't get 6M even if we tried.
@@Albent I didn't know independiente has so much debt, I see they had a poor season tho. Are most clubs in Argentina in bad shape then?
Please can you do basketball Serie A next?
P.S.: I really like your content, keep up with the good work!
I'll add it to the to do list.
i like your background music and chillness
Fancy doing an RFU Championship Rugby video Mr. Stadiums? xx There's only 12 and some are interesting as hell, easy banger I promise ya, love the content
Great video! Can you do the Primera Nacional stadiums next? (Second league from Argentina)
If you could add anything at the end of your videos I wod suggest a brief statement on which your favorite and worst were and why.
Many thanks and have a great 2023.
That's a good idea. I might start doing that actually. Thanks for the suggestion.
The stadium of Colon, Brigadier Estanislao Lopez got new stands behind one of the goals, where the metal arches were, forgot that
Some people call "La bombonerita" to the Rosario Central Stadium, because is looks like the Bombonera of Boca Juniors. By the other hand, River Plate was called so after the "Río de la Plata", which is the big River near the Stadium. As we know, nowadays there is a debate about if it is really a river or an estuary, but for centuries we have been proud of having the widest river in the World!!!
9:30 The Libertadores de América was actually built from scrap over 10 years ago, the first stadium was indeed built in the 1920s and was the first concrete stadium in the region, but it wasnt refurbished as you say, it was completely demolished in 2008 and gave way to the new and modern english-styled stadium
Pintar los ladrillos para que parezca terminado ahora se llama "estilo inglés" jajaaj
You all need to know that on this last years with the change of directors of AFA and the pandemic, the number of teams in the Pimera Division has raised to 28 teams from the original 20. That's because new managments of the AFA have the support of tems of lower divisions, in this years a lot of teams of lower divisions have made his way to the top division, so that's the reason because you see so much little humble stadiums with very low capacity and the smallest stadium, in fact, is Barracas Central, the club that is owned by the president of th AFA himself. So a lot of concesions has been made to this little teams to archive the top division.
In one scene of the film El Secreto De Sus Ojos (The Secret In Their Eyes, Academy Award winner), you can see an aerial shot of the Tomás Adolfo Ducó Stadium (Huracán) depicting a football match in the 1970s
Argentinian stadiums look brutal.
No investment.
And it's surprising
Stop the hate I hope Argentina host the World Cup with Uruguay mororco seems another candidate after losing bids in 2010, 2026
En Argentina todos los clubes son sociales, sin fines de lucro.
Yeah and we love it, cause there are no big companies sticking their hands like in usa or europe
The great merit of the stadiums in Argentina is that they belong to civil societies, true clubs. There is no club that belongs to a corporation or a private company. This is why there are no million-dollar investments in the stadiums, except when a club is lucky enough to sell a player abroad.
you choose the best and beatifull stadium for the preliminar view!

Thx for the video!
Let's be real, Racing's stadium is beautiful.
brazil serie A please, fist time in years that we have the big 12 in the first division for 2023 season
up
I see you focused on the Neighboring country of my birth! Well, they deserve a look after all!
Nice job, and I can't wait for your future coverage of the rest of the Leagues in South America! 🇨🇱 😉
Can you do K-League and Chinese Super League ( CSL ) videos ? I'm sure there will be tons of good stadiums
And please do not mess up the K League 1 and the K League 2.
When the Perons were in power after the war, they invested a lot of money into projects like these stadiums, which put many people to work. These workers were also paid very well. That is why there are no fewer than three on this list named after one of the Perons
This is useful as I'm reading bits of the book Sightlines where the author visits the grounds of Buenos Aires. I was curious to see the Huracan ground & the stand /exec boxes at Boca. Ta very much.
falta el de All Boys (mi equipo) dentro de un año volvemos a primera
5:10 Estadio de Colon de Santa Fe, "Cementerio de los elefantes", se puso ese apodo, luego de que el SANTOS de PELE perdiera su largo invicto frente al sabalero, al poco tiempo la selección argentina, también fue derrotada en un amistoso. Aeeeeeeaaaaaa yo soy sabalero!!! Sabalero Sabalero!!!!
The smallest stadium in that league must’ve had the day off on making grandstands.
The club tends to hang around in the third division or so....thing is the fella the stadium is named after (their ex-president) is now the president of the Argentine Football Association. He's also the son-in-law of the country's primary union leader and mafioso (who just quit being president of Independiente). So they've made their "way up" lately to the top division....with let's call it questionable refereeing decisions and inexplicable sources of funding.
The best is the "libertadores de america"🔥🔥
Is the portuguese league video ever coming?
I will definitely get to it eventually. I just have so many half finished videos to attend to first.
Any plans on doing the USL stadiums?
10:00 Obviously its beautiful, its Club Atletico Independiente's stadium, the biggest club of America. 7 Libertadores, Boca has 6. Bochini, Maradona's idol, played for Independiente. Aguante el Rojo wacho
Pitching-in Northern Premier league stadiums please pretty please. Great video as always
Hello bro, good video, The Brigadier or, Elefant Graveyard, its called from that way, because, all the big teams(River, boca, Estudiantes, San Lorenzo, Racing),Were beaten here, at almost, we have an histroey that we Had Won The Santos Of Pele, and the Argentinian Team, thx for the video, and keep going.

excelent video! Argentine second division stadiums?
Las mejores canchas del mundo🔥
Dale rojoo
aguante el rojo papa
hay que explicarle a este muchacho que en nuestro pais no hay el poder economico como para renovar un estadio de un dia para el otro, es muy dificil hacer una remodelacion grande en poco tiempo sin endeudarse.
The stadium of Talleres de Córdoba Is not Mario Alberto Kempes. The stadium of Talleres Is Francisco Cabases. (La Boutique)
I was surprised to see that you haven't done a video on the stadiums of the Top14, is that something you'd consider?
Faz os estadios mas lindos do brasil , os que estao construindo em 2022 e os que ja estão pronto.
Please do the stadiums for the Tunisian football championship
The name is River Plate because the team is originally from la Boca, they would later move to nuñez
no importa. lo que enfoca en el video sigue siendo el rio de la Plata
I want to know more about that Huracan stadium.......fucking incredible!
El estadio Mario Alberto Kempes no es propiedad del club atlético Talleres, el estadio es del estado de la provincia de Córdoba. El estadio propiedad de Talleres es el Francisco Cabasés. Quería aclararlo para que no quede ese error
next to River Plate stadium IS the river. It's not the ocean, it's the river called plate. It's a very wide river. Sweet water.
Not just a wide river, the widest river in the world😬
Q refacciones el José Maria minella está muy chico 👦 por lo menos hay q agrandaloo a por lo menos 45000 personas porque mardel esta creciendo mucho saludoooos y espero 🙏 😉 se concrete el proyecto buen video
you have to do the french rugby Top14, so many good and unique stadiums there
Racing club 💙⚽💙⚽
When you see that the stadium has "unique" in its name, it's reffer that its the "only" stadium at that city.
Of course the city may have other stadium, like in la plata, where aparte from the estadio único de la plata, you have gimnasia and estudiantes stadiums
Did you know that Racing Club Stadium and Independiente Stadium are too close. side by side. You can see it in the minute 12:28
This is an interesting video! Are you planning for a video on the Saudi Pro League stadiums? Would a player who entered this World Cup as a player who was not part of any club be the motivation for making the video?
The Mario Alberto Kempes stadium does not belong to talleres, (min 15:38) this club must rent the stadium for each game, because it is a very small club. so they don't have their own stadium.
No soy de Talleres, pero ellos si tienen estadio, le dicen "la boutique" tiene poca capacidad para la cantidad de socios q son por lo tanto la ciudad les alquila el estadio, al igual q con belgrano pero estos si tienen un estadio con "buena" capacidad asi q lo usan para partidos de gran magnitud
Las imagenes son como de hace 10 años. La mayoria de los estadios hoy son distintos.
Can you do Puerto Rico baseball stadiums?
I will look into it.
Happy News Year
Happy new year, taco. Send my best wishes to your brothers burrito and quesadilla.
One thing that is wrong to be checked is the capacity of the Instituto stadium, it is not 26,000, it is 32,000 people
Porque no ponen las imágenes actuales
Olds and archaic stadiums
Do the stadiums of Buenos Aires
Argentina es un país que vive el fútbol. Pero la realidad es que también no ahí muchos equipos con capacidad de hinchas. Y se ve reflejado en los estadios. Aún así creo que ahora muchos estadios se van a empezar a equipar y cambiar muchas de sus fachadas y demás.
4:30 you say this as a joke but this is the actual reason for it, Argentina is a sports country and they do have a cricket national team so this venue can have their games
Me gustó mucho el estadio de Banfield y huracan. Todo el mundo conoce la bombonera de boca juniors o el monumental de river plate. O el de independiente. Pero me gustaron mucho
