10 Best Football Stadiums In The World
6. Soccer City (Johannesburg)
There really is nothing quite like Soccer City anywhere else in the world.
Also known as the First National Bank Stadium, it is located in the Soweto area of Johannesburg, South Africa. It was designed to be the premiere stadium for the 2010 World Cup and also hosted the final between Netherlands and Spain. In the process, it also became the largest stadium in Africa - holding more than 90,000 spectators.
It is a highly impressive structure and added to its location and the sound of the vuvuzelas, it has earned its place in the top-10 world stadiums due to the atmosphere is harbours. Designed to look like an African pot, the cladding on the outside is is like a mosaic of fire.
It is a shame that this stadium is not in Europe so it could be home to Champions League sides, however it is a sign that Africa as a continent is expanding its influence in the world of football - and may even become a bigger player in the future.
