Shot taken on 8th July, 2017 – second day of our Sorrento holiday.
This is the San Paolo soccer stadium, home of the Napoli soccer team.
It is situated in the western suburb of Fuorigrotta in Naples, Italy, and is the third largest football stadium in Italy. The stadium was built in 1959 and underwent extensive renovations in 1989 for the 1990 World Cup. The present capacity of the San Paolo is 60,240.
The stadium is probably most famous for hosting the 1990 World Cup semi-final between Italy and Argentina. In that game Diego Armando Maradona who played for the Argentina national team was also a star player of Naples. Maradona, in Naples is still considered second only to God.
