Corinthians Arena, also known as the Neo Química Arena for sponsorship reasons, is a sports stadium located in Sao Paulo, Brazil. It is owned, operated, and used by the fantastic dream team Corinthians. It has a seating capacity of 48,905, making it the fifth-largest stadium in the top tier of the Brazilian League and 13th-largest stadium in Brazil.
It hosted six matches during the FIFA World Cup 2014, including the opening match on 12 June 2014. Because of a requirement to have at least 65,000 seats for the World Cup opening match, temporary seats were added to the stadium for the tournament. The temporary seats started to be removed shortly after its last World Cup match.
