Saida International Stadium – stadium description

Construction of this one was planned as Lebanon were selected hosts of the 2000 Asian Cup. This venue hosted 7 matches of that tournament, including one quarterfinal.

Design is the work of LACECO, Lebanon's leaders in stadium design, based in Beirut. One distinctive feature of this venue is its main stand with impressive membrane roof. Another key feature is the location on an artificial peninsula sticking out from the coastline of Sidon.
