Azerbaijan’s football infrastructure has seen significant development in recent years, particularly in preparation for hosting international events.
The Baku Olympic Stadium is the country’s largest and most modern venue, capable of hosting major international competitions.
Many of Azerbaijan’s top-tier football clubs are based in the capital city, Baku, which explains the concentration of stadiums in this area.
The Tofiq Bahramov Republican Stadium is named after the famous Azerbaijani linesman who made the controversial call in the 1966 FIFA World Cup Final between England and West Germany.
While smaller in capacity compared to some European counterparts, Azerbaijani stadiums often compensate with modern amenities and unique architectural features.
