Loftus Versfeld Stadium - Pretoria

  • Saturday, 01 May, 2010
  • Loftus Versfeld Stadium, Pretoria

Loftus Versfeld Stadium is one of the oldest stadiums in South Africa. It has been used for major sporting events since 1903, and the first concrete structure, which could accommodate only 2,000 spectators, was built by the City Council of Pretoria in 1923.

It is now home to Mamelodi Sundowns and SuperSport United in the domestic football league as well as one of the country’s top rugby teams, the Blue Bulls.

With a capacity of 50,000 it will be used for five Group games – including the host nation’s second Group match with Uruguay – and one Round of 16 clash.
