Bloemfontain Stadium

Home to some of the country’s most fanatical
group of supporters, the Free State Stadium is
likely to be the centre of attention during the
FIFA World Cup™. The stadium was given a plush
new look for the 2009 FIFA Confederations Cup .
It hosted the memorable semi-final match between
Spain and USA where the latter secured one of
the biggest surprises of the tournament by
sending the European champions packing in front
of a capacity crowd.
