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.
The Free State Stadium was upgraded from a
capacity of 38,000 to 45,000 during the refurbishments. The stadium has
hosted numerous major football and rugby union matches, and
Bloemfontein's natives are renowned for their passion for sport.
While
the former played second fiddle to the latter for decades, football's
popularity explosion - aided by the emergence of Bloemfontein Celtic -
is changing this. The Celtic fans are known as Siwelele, a Sotho term.
