Městský stadion (Ústí nad Labem)

Městský stadion is a multi-purpose stadium in Ústí nad Labem, Czech Republic. It is mainly used for football matches and is the home ground of FK Ústí nad Labem. The stadium had a capacity of 3,000 people (555 seated) before reconstruction. When Ústí were promoted to the Czech First League in 2010, it was ruled that the stadium did not meet the league criteria required by the football association. Therefore, FK Ústí nad Labem's 2010–11 Czech First League matches were played at Na Stínadlech.[1] The ground was upgraded to be available the next season, although the club was subsequently relegated. The reconstructed stadium was reopened in 2014 with a capacity of 4,000 seats.[2]
