Salt Lake Stadium biggest one in the world?
 

Is it right that the biggest Football Stadium of the world is the Salt Lake Stadium in India with a capacity of 120.000? Because the May Day isn't a Football Stadium but for cultural events and Maracana has today "only" a capacity of 103.000. So is that right?

I think the biggest one is benefica one.. but yup salt lake is one of the biggest. Capacity 120,000. It has unofficially highest attendance for a soccer match during a friendly between arch rivals East Bengal- Mohun Bagan

hope this helps

basically, i extract the list of stadiums with "multi-use" and "football" ONLY.

The list:--

1) Name: Velký Strahovský Stadion - Country: Rep. Czech - City: Praha - Capacity: 220 000 - Built: 1926 - Seats: nil?? :confused: - Use: Multi-use

2) Name: Rungnado May Day Stadium - Country: People Rep. of Korea - City: Pyöngyang - Capacity: 150 000 - Built: 1989 - Seats: all-seater - Use: Multi-use/National Stadium (not sure for football though)

3) Name: Saltlake Stadium - Country: India - City: Calcutta - Capacity: 120 000 - Built: 1984 - Seats: all-seater - Use: Multi-use

4) Name: Estadio Azteca - Country: Mexico - City: Mexico City - Capacity: 114465 - Built: 1966 - Seats: all-seater - Use: Football

5) Name: Jornalista Mário Filho (Maracanã) - Country: Brazil - City: Rio de Janeiro - Capacity: 103 045 - Built: 1950 - Seats: 77 743 - Use: Football

6) Name: National Stadium Bukit Jalil - Country: Malaysia - City: Kuala Lumpur - Capacity: 100 200 - Built: 1998 - Seats: all-seater - Use: Multi-use / National Stadium

7) Name: Bung Karno Stadium - Country: Indonesia - City: Jakarta - Capacity: 100 000 - Built: 1962 - Seats: all-seater - Use: Multi-use / National Stadium

8) Name: Dziesieciolecia Stadion - Country: Poland - City: Warszawa - Capacity: 100 000 - Built: 1955 - Seats: all-seater - Use: Multi-use

9) Name: Azadi Stadium - Country: Iran - City: Tehran - Capacity: 100 000 - Built: 1971 - Seats: all-seater - Use: Multi-use

So I'm right cause the Czech Stadium isn't for football games and the May Day Stadium is only for cultural events. So the Salt Lake Stadium is the biggest Football Stadium in the world.

i agree with you ;)
