The friendly match is scheduled to take place on July 16, but before talking about the greatness of the teams that will face each other, we must first talk about the impressive building in which this duel will take place, as it is one of the most impressive stadiums in the world.

This is the Allegiant Stadium in pictures

Allegiant Stadium is a sports venue located in the city of Paradise, Nevada, the United States, which hosts the home games of the Las Vegas Raiders of the National Football League (NFL) and the UNLV Rebels of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). 

However, the facility also hosts other types of shows, such as wrestling matches and concerts, due to its capacity and comfort, as well as the easy access to the facility.

It was inaugurated at the end of July 2020 and has a capacity of 65,000 spectators, but those numbers are not the most impressive of the stadium, since it has, for example, 28 thousand tons of structural steel, which makes the stadium heavier than the Statue of Liberty itself. 

But that's not even the most imposing aspect of this great stadium, which has even hosted the Concacaf Gold Cup in its 2021 edition.

The incredible stadium with a transparent roof and incredible amenities

The transparent roof of the stadium is so huge as it can cover the entire property, so the stadium offers the comfort of being able to host matches without being affected by the weather conditions that the environment can give. 

The seven-acre ETFE roof is suspended by 100 stainless steel cables that create the lightweight diaphragm of the roof structure and is translucent yet protects players and fans from the summer heat while preserving the atmosphere of an open-air stadium.

And the stadium also features a sliding field tray, which weighs 19 million pounds and is powered by 72 motors, a marvel of modern engineering, for the comfort of all spectators. 

These and more amenities will be enjoyed by those who attend events held at this venue, located next to the world-famous Las Vegas Strip. So in addition to being an impressive building, the Allegiant Stadium is easily accessible for those who attend the events that take place there.
