Because many of our clubs of medium dimension got huge crises and got relegated in recent years (Académica Coimbra, Vitória Setúbal, Belenenses, Beira Mar, Estrela da Amadora and Leiria).
It's incredible but I believe a lot of the Braga fans don't like it and want to move which is interesting. It looks incredible from a distance and seeing it in photos/videos but I suppose aesthetics might not equal a good atmosphere or an enjoyable weekly match going experience for the fans.
The "national" stadium at Estoril hosted the 1967 European Cup Final, where Celtic beat Inter Milan 2-1 to become the first non-Latin team to win the competition. It's obviously very outdated but it's still iconic.
That wasn't in the estoril stadium it was in the national stadium that has almost 40k seats. There's some smaller clubs from lisbon that play there when they play against bigger clubs and it is where cup finals are held
I love the fact that the Portuguese authorities use the relatively ancient Estadio Nacional for big games like the Portuguese Cup final, eschewing the likes of the more modern stadia on show here. I'm sure Celtic fans feel the same way.
It’s about 3:30 in the morning where I live, my sleep schedule has been out of whack recently. That being said, I am happy I have a new video from this dude to watch while trying to go to sleep.
Porto's and Braga's stadiums are the most beautiful. Guimares's stadium elicits some dark memories from Hungarian football fans, because Miklós Fehér of Benfica died here 20 years ago during a match.
i have to defend my stadium, the images shown are outdated with the seats and lighting, here the actual version: th-cam.com/video/XlKOrU-VGWo/w-d-xo.html
Estadio Da Luz, as an Arsenal fan I wish we painted the roof struts in red and white, rather than just white. I think the Da Luz roof looks way cooler than ours, which looks like a flattened sugary doughnut. Having said that we have those big awesome screens so... Lisbon is a really cool and cheap city. You can easily walk it despite the hills. Just don't go during the rainy storm season, the tiled pavements, rain and trainers don't make a great combination. It was a shame we couldn't visit the cities stadiums as they were just a bit too out of the way for us, even with 4 days there.
Estadio Nacional is the only stadium I and my pals have walked about. Grounds people gave us free access to the changing rooms and the pitch. All had our Celtic shirts. Never brought a ball.
Have done most of the grounds in and around Lisbon but would love to get to Porto and Braga both on my bucket list. Pity it couldn't have included some of the quirky lower league grounds like the one in the shadow of the christ the redeemer statue across the river in Lisbon.
Hi! I am from Braga, Portugal. And yes the stadium is unique and amazing, but is very cold in winter because of the big rocks surrounding the stadium, and football ambient is not the best because is open, even tho we sing a lot.. i do prefer Porto stadium althought i am a braga fan
Love your videos but you don't seem to talk about floodlight pylons much. Pretty significant part of stadium design in my view. I'd rather have 4 striking towers than lights on the stand roof....
8:26 Portugal literally discovered Brazil during the discovery ages. That's why their language is called "Brazilian Portuguese" and not "Brazilian". And this is a good segway to the statement at the beginning of the video. Our contribution to the world goes far beyond just custard tarts. We discovered Brazil, Angola, Mozambique, Cape Verde, São Tomé and Príncipe, Guinea-Bissau, Timor-Leste, etc. We also found the first maritime route to India from Europe. We traded with many countries all over the world, and we even had territories in India and China at one point. And going back to food influence, "tempura" from Japan was inspired by Portuguese food, we introduced tea to England, etc.
You have to research more before talking random things. The brazilian language its similar to ours, not the other way around. You know who found brazil, at least? It was the portuguese. So after you know this fact you still think its the portuguese talk similar to the brazilian or the other way around?
I hope you were being ironic when you said “although their language is suspiciously similar to Brazil’s” 😂 Portugal colonized Brazil, hence they speak the same language. So Brazil were the ones who copied 🤣
The contrast between big and small clubs in Portugal is remarkable. It's like a mix of huge clubs and non-league.
Because many of our clubs of medium dimension got huge crises and got relegated in recent years (Académica Coimbra, Vitória Setúbal, Belenenses, Beira Mar, Estrela da Amadora and Leiria).
Braga's stadium is one of the world best, I absolutely love it, proper inventive stadium design.
I agree. I like the views of the natural environment it has, along with the two stands with the cables running across the top.
It reminds me of the new Monaco training facility up on the side of a cliff in Monte Carlo. Beautiful facility.
The architect who built it, Eduardo Souto Moura, is known worldwide and won the pritzker

I love old historical stadiums!
Since 40 years so national stadium are the best place to playing the portuguese cup.
Congratulations
Beautiful country with appealing stadiums.
My favorite Stadium in Portugal ist Boavista's in Porto. I Love the design, IT IS different than all the others...
It's really cool a bit like the stadium in Genova.
It looks like the Luigi Ferrari stadium in Genoa.

Hi all have a wonderful sunday from Dublin, ireland
Quality stuff. I do love the Dragao in Porto
Only one track and no naming, very nice.
Too bad Boavista is now far from European competitions, their stadium is great.
Estadio Nacional is the only stadium I and my pals have walked about. Grounds people gave us free access to the changing rooms and the pitch. All had our Celtic shirts. Never brought a ball.
FINALMENTE CARALHO
Another charming vid, some great stadiums on show too... I think you're due revisiting the Premier League soon maybe 🤷♂️
DANISH SUPERLIGA!
Great video
Braga's stadium is my favorite
Very wide variety here
Your pronunciation was decent. And yes, the Emirates is a copycat of the Benfica Stadium

É uma piada 😐
