National stadium

A national stadium is a stadium that typically serves as the primary or exclusive home for one or more of a country's national representative sports teams. The term is most often used in reference to a football stadium. Usually, a national stadium will be in or very near a country's capital city, and is generally (but not always) the country's largest and most lavish athletic venue.
