Luigi Ferraris is a glorious stadium. Full of character, unique and imposing as well as in a great city. A great place to visit if you're ever in Genoa.
I’m a Sampdoria fan and I have season tickets there. The athmosphere is incredible and it has an intimate, passionate setting. The pitch is in horrific conditions, but other than that it’s a unique stadium
If you ever go to Naples you will know why Maradona has their stadium named after him. He has shrines all over the city from his time with Napoli and winning a few titles with them.
Have seen a match between Lazio-Sampdoria at the Olympic Stadium in Rome. As tourists we were wondering why everybody brought a match newspaper. To sit on!. There was a lot of seagull crap on the seats 😎
There was a "moat" (empty concrete deep trench) in the former SAn Paolo when I lived in Naples 1987-1991.. NOt sure if its still there. it was between the "Anello Inferiore" and the athelitc track around the pitch
the worst is the fiorentina stadium, how does a team like Fiorentina that has gone to the Champions League and Europa League many times to have such a horrendous stadium?
Los Estadios de La Juventus de Turín, El Estádio Olímpico y del Milan e Inter de Milán son Los Mejores, y hay que Reconocer que si están Mejor Los Estadios de La Liga MX de México
Yes, im italian and I think that the stadiums of the small teams need to be modernized. In Venice it is difficult for there to be a change due to the place where the stadium is
This is a really great idea! I think the most beautiful and fascinating stadiums are the ones of smaller clubs internationally. DusselfDorf has a GORGEOUS stadium from memory
Loving the videos man - as a stadium geek and Serie A nostalgist, this was my favourite. Italy really has a certain strange, delapidated style to their stadiums. Maybe worth doing a best-of-the rest Italian stadium video at some point. I love Bari's flower-like concrete monster for example.
@@francesco4302 I'd love to see that unique stadium ("L’astronave" - "the space ship") in one of his videos! Unfortunately, I've never been there, but especially the outside looks incredible!
I have a great love for Italian stadiums because of Italia 90, but it’s strange to see how little has changed for most of those stadiums in the last 30 years. That said, the San Siro is still my all time favourite stadium and if it does get demolished, it will be sadly missed.
It's incredible to think that the San Siro opened only about half a dozen years after the cowshed that was the original Wembley Stadium. It will be an act of cultural vandalism if it is demolished, it should be declared a World Heritage Site. I know the narrator joked about bulldozing The Colosseum, but, for me, demolishing probably the greatest football stadium ever built would be just as great a loss. It's worth saving at any cost.
Bologna's stadium Renato Dall'Ara is actually set to be renewed in the next 3 years, increasing the capacity and with all the seats to be covered, instead of just a section.
yeeh sure. 10 years ago they said: it will be renewed in 3 years. trust me, it will take a long time before seeing actual renovations in italian stadiums.
I went to the San Paolo (Stadio Diego Armando Maradona) in Naples just before the facelift and it was a shithole. No concessions, leaky toilets with literal rivers of urine running across the concourse, and incredibly uncomfortable seats. Hopefully the renovations fixed some of the problems
Many of these stadiums are simply a shame for a premier division in a country where football is the most practiced and followed sport. Who goes to the stadium on a rainy day, is forced to get completely wet or follow the match with an umbrella. Is such a thing possible in 2021?
This video makes me a little sad. While I understand their flaws, I feel like there is real beauty in some of the rounded stadiums in rural Italy. I hope at least some of them are (safely) maintained. Fiorentina's stadium is absolutely gorgeous
So most Italian clubs have antiquated, ugly, and overall bad stadiums that half of them have to share with another club, which is in most cases their rival? Damn.
As a Roma fan I still find it sickening that we have to share with those actual Mussolini loving nazis, Lazio. Can’t wait for the new stadio. They can have the decrepit pile.
I am Italian and after seeing this video ,waiting the new stadiums of bologna firenze atalanta and cagliari I can say half are good the others are shit 😅
Please do a Stadium Video for the Turkish Süper Lig, since it's so diverse. Some clubs literally have brand new stadiums whereas other play in quite run down places, it would be sooo interesting! Or maybe the Austrian Bundesliga
Amazing that with a league team having a stadium capacity of 7,450 that has space to park 5 coaches next to the pitch they are thinking of knocking the most iconic that has a capacity of 80,000 and is loved by fans the world over.
Ahh yes. I get Serie A and Syria confused all the time. Anyway, I hope that the civil war happening in Serie A ends soon. All the refugees can talk about is football.
It's in a lovely setting, but Venezia's stadium is really like a very minor non-league semi-professional English football ground in the eighth tier, and a pretty decrepit one at that. It's quite astonishing they will be hosting clubs like Juventus and Inter there next season. But good luck to them, I hope they can stay up.
Most rectangular stadiums are bland and boring. That being said, the Florence stadium was actually build as an hommage to Mussolini; his nickname was Il Duce, and if you look closely, you will notice the shape of the building is a giant"D". De for Duce.
truth about italian stadiums: gewiss stadium will not be finished, new stadiums will not be built. old stadiums will remain the same forever. in italy it's impossible to build something.
Same in Belgium. Club Brugge is trying to build a new stadium since 2009 because theirs is too small and just dangerous to be in but they can't even find a ground to build it on.
little titbit about the semi demolished Caligari stadium. In the 1990 World Cup the organisers made England play all their group games there.. to keep England fans off the mainland !
Italian Stadiums are nice and normal.They are great theaters the visual aspect is great.Some of them they need a cover and new facade. Delle Alpi is 100 times better then the new one.At least it's even ,needs a track.San Siro needs a track too.You sound very strange talking about modern and actually it's outdated old style from last or even 19 th century you are favouring .The crappiest ones that they need to get rid of are the ones you like .Or you are jealous or you don't have sense for esthetics and modern.
see Stadio Benite Stirpe of Frosinone Calcio! It's a new stadium and the team played in it in Serie A in 2018/19 (they also played in Serie A in 2015/2016 but the new stadium wasn't complete). The stadium is property of the Team for 45 years.
As an Arsenal fan, two of the featured stadiums have been the location for some of the greatest football moments of my life. Stadio Olimpico - Roma 1 Arsenal 3. Henry with a hat-trick and one of the best individual performances I have witnessed. San Siro - Inter 1 Arsenal 5. The most iconic stadium on the planet - the most extraordinary result in my lifetime. Yeah, you can win away at a European giant but not 5-1. The entire evening felt like a dream. I'm going to miss the old girl when she goes.
Serie A’s heyday was in the 90s where all the big stars of Europe head to following the Italia ‘90 WC but it’s unfortunate that not many stadiums have been upgraded since, the worst part though is that despite the stadiums all having low capacity, you watch the game and all you see is empty seats…
Suggestion. For these big soccer leagues I think you should do some research and find the stadiums of teams in the lower divisions that have been demoted to those divisions. But historically have spent a lot of time in the top division in their respective countries. Like Shalke in Germany. Their are several cases in several countries where big named clubs with decent sized stadiums have been demoted to lower divisions.
Agreed. One of Italy's best stadiums (Nereo Rocco Stadium in Trieste) hasn't seen Serie A in decades because its home club (Triestina) has always been in 2nd or 3rd division. Edit: also Renzo Barbera Stadium in Palermo is really good, but Palermo currently plays in 3rd division due to financial problems (even though the club played in Serie A for almost 20 years).
The Milan Derby in a UCL semi-final at the San Siro , the year before the stadium is demolished. What a fitting ending for such an iconic ground Milanista Last Dance
Luigi Ferraris is a glorious stadium. Full of character, unique and imposing as well as in a great city. A great place to visit if you're ever in Genoa.
The toilets don't look good though

@@guglielmonicolini3684 Love it. All the best with your survival!

I went to the pre-developed Friuli Stadium, home of Udinese so Udinese is my Italian team. My main club is Plymouth Argyle, Ehgland league 1.
Excellent! I love watching your videos, informative and funny!
Thank you 👍
Cheers!
Venezia stadium 🔥🔥🔥
Please show the stadiums of smaller leagues like Andorra, San Marino, Gibraltar
I’m afraid that they have only one stadium each.
@@johnprice164 Andorra has four. Gibraltar only one. San Marino i think that they only have one but i am not sure. Liechtenstein has 2 thar i know of
Have seen a match between Lazio-Sampdoria at the Olympic Stadium in Rome. As tourists we were wondering why everybody brought a match newspaper. To sit on!. There was a lot of seagull crap on the seats 😎
It’s nice all stadiums are still in city centers where as in Western Europe more outside the city, in industrial/ office areas
"The Birmingham of the south" :)
There was a "moat" (empty concrete deep trench) in the former SAn Paolo when I lived in Naples 1987-1991.. NOt sure if its still there. it was between the "Anello Inferiore" and the athelitc track around the pitch
Stadiums of the Portuguese League or the Russian League next.
Guiseppe Meazza 💙🖤
can you do national league stadiums for England? that would be cool
My favorite Serie A stadium is the Bologna stadium...
You should do the U.S.’ Northwoods baseball league if you haven’t yet
I've noticed out of all your videos you don't have one African stadium 🤪
They won't knock down San Siro. The new stadium, which was officially confirmed yesterday, will be built on another site. San Siro will always stand.
Very old stadiums
The 2010 World Cup briefly put South Africa in the football spotlight; have you covered their stadiums, yet?
🇮🇹🇮🇹
San Siro ❤️
Can you do la liga nos stadiums
the worst is the fiorentina stadium, how does a team like Fiorentina that has gone to the Champions League and Europa League many times to have such a horrendous stadium?
It is one of the most important examples of the architecture of the fascist period. It is a piece of history.
So Roma and lazio and ac Milan and inter use the same stadium to play? I am confuse from Barcelona fan
Yes. At Olimpico play Lazio and Rome. At San Siro Milan and Inter
@@edoardobergesio6614 that cool 😳
And none of these will be featured on FIFA 22

Their stadiums aren’t good
Serie a stadium is some of the worst in Europe

christ... most of these are absolute trash. 3 good stadiums, one okay one and the rest is a joke
delle alpi was so much better
Ils sont degeulasse
Ahh yes
The goat is back
Could you show the stadiums of the 2nd Bundesliga that would be interresting?
Better than serie a Stadiums hahaha
He already did
...nvm he didn't I mistaken his Euro 2024 video for it
Yes please
Will do! Eventually.

Pity Bari aren't in Serie A. That stadium seemed so futuristic at the time and so unlike anything in England.
@@johnporter5173 Agreed, it was totally unique at the time. Given the state of it now however, it’s probably better they’re out of the limelight.

Only if you look with your eyes closed .. ,😎😉😆😆😆
Yeah and most of them sharing their stadiums 😂
That's fascist architecture for you
@@jerkteen4090 this sets derby on a whole new different level
Going to the Venice stadium with your family on a boat sounds like a great day. If the team wins that's a bonus.
The best stadium channel by far - great mix of history, geekiness, and informed humour
Cheers!

sorry mate but this is the asian pronunciation of the italian
I live in Thailand and we have better stadiums than this lmfao
In italy we have a big disparity from the stadium of a small team to a stadium of a strong team.
in indonesia we have better to for almost this past 10 year we build more new stadium than the Italian
I went to the San Paolo (Stadio Diego Armando Maradona) in Naples just before the facelift and it was a shithole. No concessions, leaky toilets with literal rivers of urine running across the concourse, and incredibly uncomfortable seats. Hopefully the renovations fixed some of the problems

The Fiorentina stadium is part of the Cultural Heritage
Syria has quite a lot of good stadiums
So most Italian clubs have antiquated, ugly, and overall bad stadiums that half of them have to share with another club, which is in most cases their rival? Damn.
yep. and don't forget: most italian clubs don't even own the stadium
4:55 of course no one seems to sit there it’s a Chievo match not hellas Verona
As a Roma fan I still find it sickening that we have to share with those actual Mussolini loving nazis, Lazio. Can’t wait for the new stadio. They can have the decrepit pile.
One Of The Worst Stadiums In World
Except Stadio Olympico , San Siro , Allianz Stadium , Stadio Luigi Ferraris, Stadio Friuli
I am Italian and after seeing this video ,waiting the new stadiums of bologna firenze atalanta and cagliari I can say half are good the others are shit 😅
The English style of the stadiums sucks. In Italy the stadiums are owned by the cities that very often have no money to renovate.
The disparity is strong in here.
Please do a Stadium Video for the Turkish Süper Lig, since it's so diverse. Some clubs literally have brand new stadiums whereas other play in quite run down places, it would be sooo interesting!
Or maybe the Austrian Bundesliga
If compared with premier league, Bundes liga, La Liga / Ligue 1 i think the stadium in seria A most ancient but even so i still like serie A
From what I remember, I’m sure you can walk inside the Udinese arch
Am I the only one that thinks Venezia stadium is trash?
Amazing that with a league team having a stadium capacity of 7,450 that has space to park 5 coaches next to the pitch they are thinking of knocking the most iconic that has a capacity of 80,000 and is loved by fans the world over.
We don’t need fancy stadium. Our fans are the stadium
5:57 Allianz is great except for the cables in each corner. Unfortunate design flaw .

Everytime I'm seeing Bologna FC in the scores and fixtures or their stadium, I'm getting reminded of Ragù alla bolognese which is always a good thing.

A lot of the stadium’s really need upgrading
