Miyagi Stadium
Venue information
The striking stadium, venue for two first-round matches and one
in the second, is shaped in an asymmetrical arc modeled on the
moon-shaped crest from the helmet of 17th century samurai warrior
Masamune Date.
It is located north of Tokyo, 10 kilometers (6
miles) from the center of Sendai City, in an area renowned for hot
springs and rice and other agricultural products. Miyagi stadium
has been used primarily for national track and field meets and
J-League All-Star and championship matches.
The venue is the site of two first-round matches -- Ecuador vs.
Mexico and Sweden vs. Argentina -- and a match in the round of 16.
