Stadiums
Despite a possibility of up to twelve stadiums being used for the event, a limited group total cause a few venues to be cut. Even so, a series of modern forums for football were found across the country for this special event. Each stadium will house a group to itself, and the two main regions of Zeta Reka will host just under half of the knockout matches. The final match contest will be near the seat of government at the largest sporting arena in the country, the National Sports Complex.
Antonijewić Stadion
Porto Nowi, Rekadom, Zeta Reka
Att: 3,000
Matches: Group A, Ro16 A
Porto Nowi is the highest population city in Zeta Reka, with over two million residents. The city is the Immigration and commercial capital of the country, with an outlet into what is domestically referred to as the “Bay of Offerings” Named after a former Mayor, Antonijewić Stadion hosts two clubs and had each memorialized in its seats six years ago. One half of the stadium is red and silver for Porto Nowi Athletik, while the other white with a deep blue to represent Horbatski Athletik. There is a fade one color to the other at the dugouts. It is a known fact that Horbatski supporters will never sit on the red seats without bringing blue cloths.
Ofau Stadion
Ofau, Rekadom, Zeta Reka
Att: 9,642
Matches: Group B, Ro16 B, Quarter Final B, Semi Final A, 3ppo
Ofau’s stadium is dual purpose with it’s athletic’s track. The ground was recently converted into one the most modernized stadiums in the country. Observers will notice a fourth stand that has three hundred fifty seats in total. The stand is unused in the tournament, so everyone will get a view of the Great River of Norlyr and the nearby plat for ColaKolaCola Korp. Normally the stadium is the ColaKolaCola Arena in league matches when PRD Ofau plays.
Opštinski Stadion u Ogroven
Ogroven, Ogroven, Zeta Reka
Att: 6,000
Matches: Group C, Ro16 C, Quarter Final A
Ogroven was once a nation of it’s own centuries ago, and Ogroven City was its epicenter in almost every way, even today as you team travels to the stadium they will get a glimpse of the own city in all it’s anituqaed glory. Once inside guests will have a great atmosphere, good food, and can visit an interactive exhibit about a bank robbery. Opštinski Stadion is owned by the city of Ogroven in the sub region of Ogroven*, and the city also co-operates the nearby hotel earmarked for many of the nation’s wonderful visitors.
*Not Ogrowen. The W-V relationship in Rekan language is too complex for today.
Puding Gaj
Ogroven, Ogroven, Zeta Reka
Att: 2,567
Matches: Group D, Ro16 D
The club “Pudding Manufacturing” play here at the Pudding Grove. Lucky guessers would be able to predict a pudding factory is nearby. The old tin can of deliciousness is in fact just a kilometer away. This stadium is located just with the city limits. The heart of Ogroven itself was home to our last venue. Locale isn’t the only difference. Puding Gaj is far older, and disappointingly has no bank robbery references in its lore.
Studentenstadion
Matches: Group E, Ro16 E, Quater final D
Platinastigrade, Hügeltaldom
Att: 3,000
Now the venues are in Hügeltaldom, the germanic section of Zeta Reka. In the south of Hügeltaldom’s north, or the center, lies Platinastigrade, a major mining hotspot. One of the vital organs of the entire economy is in the city, and the people of proud of their importance. Hear near the local university you’ll find the Studentenstadion or the Studentski Stadion to Rekan folks. Try not to speak the wrong language around here, Platinastigrade is the heart of the Hügeltaldom independence movement today. Many here feels the move to capitalism made the city an even more servile place. The elevation of this stadium is a bit high, but not outside of standard limitations.
Seestadion
Strumsburg, Hügeltaldom
Matches: Group F, Ro16 F
Att: 2,453
Strumsburg is a major settlement near Lake Norlyr, known for its quirky musical scene. This stadium was converted from an old ground for the “Leather Ball Game.” The game, using a leather ball, is like a hybrid of Rugby and baseball. The Leather Ball Game is a mainstream hit, but is most famous outside of the major cities. The rounder shape of this ground’s seating can be odd to look at. Play should be normalized after the drainage system was modified to remove a steep drop off at the touch lines.
Rhein Jokaimić-Muller Stadion
Bauernhaus Okrug, Hügeltaldom
Att: 13,488
Matches: Group G, Ro16 G, Semi-final B
The triangular shape of the main grandstand gives this multi purpose stadium a unique appearance. Being situated near Ovrâd/South Hügeltaldom’s largest transport juncture makes this arena easy to arrive at. The stadium hosted the Federal Athletic Championship two years running to rave reviews.
Zeta Reka Travel Korp Staidion
Kven Okrug, Hügeltaldom
Att: 4,200
Matches: Group H, Ro16 H, Quarter Final C
Kven is a tourist town located just near Mount Prinzessin. Kven is also a part of Zeta Reka’s germanic culture, something that as one would expect is most common in Hügeltaldom. With the cir being important, its sporting culture has seen investment from some of the wealthy people who call the place their vacation town. The stadium is considered a bit small and tight, with walls impeding visibility to the outside world. Fans on the south and east sides however can get a glimpse of Mount Prinzessin in her glory.
Zeta Reka National Sports Complex
Aleiusia, Glavni Oblast
Att: 51,200
Matches: Final
Aleiusia is the capital of Zeta Reka. The old city was the perfect meeting place of both Zeta Reka and Hügeltaldom. The capital region itself was fabricated from various communities near the City of Aleiusia. This is a place of wealth and influence, and the current President would have learned that while serving as the Mayor. The Zeta Reka National Sports Complex is equipped with an athletics track around the perimeter of the pitch. A retractable roof, reorganized seating, a massive video screen, state of the art luxury boxes, and a sleek brick facade put the finishing touch this sports juggernaut. Wishing the grounds of the football stadium are other arenas for sports like baseball and boxing. While only some tickets were sold, the atmosphere still screams, “finale.”
