Some of these were just tiny and almost neglected concrete slabs for stands, but Gran Parque Central, Centenario and Campéon Del Siglio were truly wonderful. A massive contrast in this league!
Sadly, despite the great players we have playing in some of the most important leagues, our infrastructure is abysmal. Peñarol and Nacional (the ones who own the Campeón del Siglo and Gran Parque Central, respectively) are the only ones who are more or less "good" in terms of economy (relative to our own league, tho. I'm sure there are tons of mid european clubs who surpass them in that regard), and most of the rest of the clubs are in different stages of struggle, some even in the brink of collapse. Our league obviously has the potential for so much more, but we are plagued with problems (some intrinsic to our own football, some external and shared with the country in general), so the issues of infrastructure, sadly, need to get relegated in favour of other, more pressing, issues.
I dunno why, but the ramshackle look for the vast majority of these stadiums just feels endearing. I bet the atmosphere for matches are incredible because of how basic they are!
@@barbarian92 oh for sure. I had a video about 10 years ago I loved to watch of the Penarol supporters just before a Copa Libatadores final or semi final. It was one of the most mental things I'd ever seen.
Interior del país, both in Argentina and Uruguay, stands for everything that is not in the capital city, in this case, everything outside Montevideo is the "interior".
two big teams. one got 53 championships and is one of the biggest clubs on south america. the other one 48, and is still a big club continentally. the rest of the teams all got less than 5 championships and are completely irrelevant continentally. i think its pretty easy
There can be several reasons: family traditions (their family has always been a fan of certain club, so they of course are also fans, tho I suspect that's a bit more rare nowadays), or it's their neghborhood's club, or there's a more personal connection to it because maybe they went to do sports or gym there all their life, or have friends or family there, or simply the club did have good seasons where they've played great and won a tournament or two. Also, despite all their past glory, Peñarol and Nacional are nowadays little more than a shell of what they used to be. They've not won anything internationally important since 1988, and they've not been relevant for years now (the most recent good performance by a uruguayan club was when Peñarol reached the Libertadores final in 2011 against Santos, but even that was just an isolated event).
Jajaja, el flaco que hizo el video se les caga de risa los 9 minutos. Sarcasmo desde el primer minuto. Que horrible la infraestructura del futbol uruguayo.
Actually and unbelievably, the stadium in Maldonado will host the 2023 Copa Sudamericana Final
Uruguay is one of those countries you never hear about unless it's a football related thing
I look forward to your video on the 'Stadiums of Montevideo'.
Might look a lot like this one.

I think on big match days it would be amazing but might be kinda depressing on days that are quarter capacity. Could go either way.
@@neilwhitaker6284 Yeah, that's fair. Though, there's something to be said for hearing those hardcore fans more, you know?

@@neilwhitaker6284 One of my goals in life is to experience that type of raucous crowd at a football match. Something about that hits perfectly.
@@barbarian92 I know what you mean I have thought the same thing.

You missed an opportunity to sing "black and yellow" with Estadio Campeon del Sialo. :)
Otherwise a neat video as always!
Uruguay is the smallest country with the greatest legacy in football history.
thats the parque artigas in Paysandu, not the one in Las Piedras.
That's what I was going to say. In fact, those pictures are super old. There are more stands and it looks so much better.
does any body else try and work out how many fans each stand can hold ?
Can you do all the chl stadiums. Which consist of the whl, ohl, and qmjhl
Estadio Gran Parque Central is the best. Plaza Colonia's logo looks like the A.A. symbol :)
Can you make an updated mls stadiums video?
Almost the stadiums of Montevideo video
how on earth do you pick a favorite team when like 20 play in your city?
