Key facts<\/h3>\n

Club: none | Opening: 1944 | Capacity: 37,500 seats<\/p>\n

History and description<\/h3>\n

Est\u00e1dio Nacional, often referred to as Jamor, is Portugal\u2019s national stadium, though only gets used for the annual Portuguese Cup final these days.<\/p>\n

Est\u00e1dio Nacional got built to provide the country with a new flagship venue for sports and other public events. Construction started in 1939 and took a total of five years. It officially opened on the 10th of June 1944.<\/p>\n

The stadium hosted its first Cup final in 1946 and has gone on to host the final up to today with only the odd diversion to Est\u00e1dio das Antas<\/a> or Est\u00e1dio Jos\u00e9 Alvalade<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In 1967, Est\u00e1dio Nacional hosted the European Cup<\/a> final between Celtic and Inter (2-1).<\/p>\n

The owner of the stadium, the Portuguese FA, have made tentative plans to renovate the stadium which has hardly changed since its inauguration. The status of any redevelopments is currently unknown though.<\/p>\n\n\n \t\t\n\t\t\t\t
