Extra stadium info – Estadio Nacional
The stadium was renovated several times. It is used by the national football team of Peru. In 1930, they played in the inaugural FIFA World Cup. In 2005, the Estadio Nacional hosted its first-ever final for the world championship for national under-17 football teams. The match was won by the United Mexican States, commonly known as Mexico, after defeating Brazil in front of tens of thousands of fans. Carlos Alberto Vela Garrido, Omar Alejandro Esparza Morales and Éver Arsenio Guzmán Zavala scored for the Mexican team in the final. The Estadio Nacional also hosted the third place match of the tournament. John Goossens scored twice for the Netherlands in that game. Nuri Şahin scored the only goal for Turkey in the third place match.
