Product Description

ESTADIO MANE GARRINCHA

Brasilia, Brazil

Estádio Nacional de Brasília (formerly known as Estádio Mané Garrincha) is a multi-purpose stadium in Brasilia, Brazil. It is currently used mostly for football matches. The stadium holds 45,200. The stadium was built in 1974.

The stadium's attendance record currently stands at 51,000, set on December 20, 1998 when Gama beat Londrina 3-0 at the 1998 Série B final, which gave Gama its first national trophy and consequent promotion to Série A in 1999.

On December 8, 2007, the final of the first edition of the Copa do Brasil de Futebol Feminino, won by Mato Grosso do Sul/Saad, was hosted at Estádio Mané Garrincha.

There are plans on reconstructing the stadium to increase its capacity to 71,000 as well as to reach the requirements for the 2014 World Cup, which will be held in Brazil. The stadium was renamed in early 2010 to the Estádio Nacional de Brasília and the reconstruction began on April of the same year.

The stadium will also host some matches in the football tournament of the 2016 Summer Olympics to be held in Rio de Janeiro.
