Some stadiums are not just sports venues - they are cathedrals of football, places steeped in history and emotion.
1. Maracanã - Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
The most legendary stadium in the world. The "Mother of Stadiums" welcomed 200,000 spectators during the 1950 World Cup.
2. Wembley - London, England
Wembley’s arch, visible from all over London. The 1966 World Cup final. The hymn "Abide with Me" before every FA Cup final.
3. Anfield - Liverpool, England
"You'll Never Walk Alone". When 60,000 people sing it in unison, it gives you goosebumps.
4. Signal Iduna Park - Dortmund, Germany
The Yellow Wall. 25,000 standing places. Dortmund’s atmosphere is unmatched in Europe.
5. La Bombonera - Buenos Aires, Argentina
Boca Juniors' stadium literally vibrates. "La Bombonera no tiembla, late" - it does not tremble, it beats.
