]]> Few places in the world are as crazy for soccer as the Chilean capital of Santiago. A country that has produced a number of legendary players and that features some of the most beloved clubs in South America, the capital has the most attractive settings for any soccer fan that you’ll find. Anyone who loves the beautiful game owes it to him or herself to visit these three Santiago stadiums!

Estado Nacional

Located in the busy Ñuñoa district of the city is the Estadio Nacional, which holds nearly 50,000 people and is the official home of Chile’s beloved national soccer team. This stadium, which hosted the 1962 FIFA World Cup final, is absolutely electric on Chile’s home match days.

Estadio Monumental

Colo-Colo is Chile’s most successful club, having won 32 titles and a Copa Libertadores. It plays at the Estadio Monumental in the neighborhood of Macul. Opened in 1975, between the passionate white and black-clad fans and the imposing Andes Mountains in the background, this is a challenging place to play for opponents!

Estadio Santa Laura

Spanish immigrants founded the Union Espanola club in 1922 after merging three other clubs founded by people who hailed from Spain. They continue to have a large backing today and play in front of a packed stadium of nearly 20,000 people at this stadium during the season.

]]> Uruguay, a small South American country of only about 3 million people, has always out-punched its weight when it comes to the game of soccer. The winner of two World Cups and fifteen Copa Americas has produced some of the game’s biggest stars and features a culture that is passionate about the game. If you find yourself in Uruguay’s capital and largest city of Montevideo, try to make time to catch a match at these three stadiums.

Estadio Centenario

The long-time home of the Uruguay national team is the Estadio Centenario. The atmosphere at a game here with fans is absolutely unbeatable, as over 60,000 fans (2% of the country’s population!) jam into sing on and cheer for their team in the heart of the city.

Estadio Campeon del Siglo

Located in the outskirts of the city in the neighborhood of Bañados de Carrasco is the home of one of Uruguay’s most popular club teams, Peñarol. The second-largest stadium in the country fits over 40,000 fans, who put on an impressive display in 2011 by unfurling the largest ever flag displayed in a stadium.

Estadio Gran Parque Central

Peñarol’s biggest rival, Club Nacional de Football, is over 120 years old and boasts another impressive stadium that features a gaggle of soccer-crazy fans. Known as “The Temple,” this stadium opened in 1900 and hosted matches in the 1930 World Cup.
