São Paulo Morumbi Stadium

Tenants: São Paulo FC
Capacity: 80,000
Dimensions: 108,25 x 72,70 m

As in the rest of Brazil, football is by far the most important sport in the city. The major teams in São Paulo are Corinthians, Palmeiras and São Paulo FC. These teams are all playing in the Brazilian Série A. Morumbi used to have 120,000 seats available, but now its maximum capacity is only 80,000 seats, and only 75,000 tickets are sold each game for safety reasons. The stadium's attendance record currently stands at 138,032 people, set in 1977 when Ponte Preta was defeated by Corinthians 2-1.
