Estádio José Alvalade is a football stadium in Lisbon, Portugal, home of Sporting, one of the country's greatest clubs. It is the center of a complex called Alvalade XXI (which includes a mall and 17-screen movie theater called Alvaláxia, plus a healthclub, the club's museum, a sports pavilion, a clinic, and an office building), designed by Portuguese architect Tomás Taveira. It was classified by UEFA as a 5-star stadium, enabling it to host finals of major UEFA events. This stadium - originally projected to hold only 40,000 spectators at any given time - has a capacity of 50,466 and was acoustically engineered as a venue for major concerts. Its official opening was on 6 August 2003 when Sporting played and beat Manchester United 3-1. It also hosted the 2005 UEFA Cup final between Sporting and CSKA Moscow, which CSKA won 3-1. The stadium has underground parking. On the exterior, the stadium features multi-colored tiles. Seats are arranged in a seemingly random color mix to give an illusion that the stadium is always at full capacity.
