The Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium, Gqeberha

The ground will be home to the third place match and a quarter-final from the eight matches of the FIFA World Cup. An exceptional roof structure was constructed to complete the stadium and have an amazing view all along to the North End Lake.
The Eastern Province rugby union or EPRU Stadium hosted the international football matches until the construction of this new ground was finished. While the playing field is covered with natural grass, the surrounding area is of artificial turf. One of the first events that took place at the new stadium was the so called Soweto Derby with Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs. The special event attracted many fans in South Africa.
