The legendary Azteca — the only stadium to host two World Cup finals (1970, 1986). This is where Maradona scored the "Hand of God" and the "Goal of the Century." Sitting at 2,200m altitude, it gives Mexico a famous home advantage. Recently renovated for 2026, with improved seating, new hospitality areas, and upgraded facilities. The atmosphere here is unlike anywhere else in football.
