Estadio Jos�� Pachencho Romero in Maracaibo

Football (Soccer in USA) is very popular in Venezuela and South America in general, and this year the COPA America 2007 is being hosted by Venezuela in a number of cities. Estadio Jose Pachencho Romero is the name of the multi-purpose stadium in Maracaibo used for this event. Three Group C matches are scheduled, including USA vs Argentina, Paraguay vs USA, and Paraguay vs Colombia. Finals are also scheduled for Maracaibo on July 15th, and given that several stadiums are still under construction (the one in Barinas is particularly behind schedule), Maracaibo could conceiveably be called upon to host more games. The stadium holds 40,000 people. My image is an old one, so hopefully the landscaping and fences around the stadium are in better repair now.
