7 Football Stadiums Closest Together

If you thought Anfield and Goodison Park or the City Ground and Meadow Lane were close together, then the geography of these football stadiums might just surprise you.

[@ALEX-ut4pp]

Number one AC Milan and Inter Milan 0 metres.

[@derekgalbraith1508]

I live in Dundee. My living room window looks out onto the front door of Dens and onto the back of one of the stands of Tannadice. I remember once walking down the street chatting about football with a mate from work. We started talking about how shit one Dundee player was in particular, and about some of his personal family issues that are known locally. We turned to walk into my flat and seen that the player himself, who we had been loudly talking about and taking the piss out of, had been walking behind us the whole time. He must have heard us because he didn't look happy! He never said anything though. I felt like a right dickhead. Lol.

[@miroslavkichukov2267]

Bulgaria's National stadium "Vasil Levski" and CSKA Sofia's ground "Balgarska Armiya" are located quite close to each other.They are both situated in the Boris garden in Sofia.

[@SgtGuarnereDD]

I was amazed that these didn't even make the list. Given the fierce rivalry between Levski and CSKA and the insane close proximity to one another's stadium I'd imagined it to be definitely within the top 7. However, given the fact he's only looking at distance, it's correct. the centre circles of those stadiums are 512 metres apart, whereas the #7 in this list are 449 metres apart.

[@prodigy84bg]

@@SgtGuarnereDD This might sound a bit counterintuitive, but the "Vasil Levski" stadium is not the stadium of Levski. Their stadium is called "Georgi Asparuhov" and is not close to those two stadiums.

[@SgtGuarnereDD]

@@prodigy84bg My life has been a lie for the past 4 years! I walked through the park that connects the Vasil Levski Stadium and the Balgarska Armia Stadium back then, amazed about those stadiums being this close together. And now it turns out it wasn't actually Levski Sofia's stadium. Thanks for the info though! I never bothered to look it up as it made all the sense in the world at that moment (and frankly, I don't speak nor read Bulgarian, so the signs in the area weren't of much help to me either). Nevertheless, the sight of 2 stadiums being built that close together is still an unforgetable sight.

[@djokovictricolor2743]

Even more close, but that the other one isnt longer a football stadium but have been, Borås Arena and Ryavallen in Borås Sweden. Ryavallen was once the home stadium for the city teams Elsborg and Norrby, before they moved to Borås Arena that is the closest neighbour.

[@johna5635]

Clearly there's a big advantage to having a tiny stadium when you use the "centre spot to centre spot" criteria... if either stadium has a stand of any real size in between the two pitches that's going to inflate the distance considerably.

[@SantomPh]

Well that is the point. If you have an Emirates size stadium it has bigger buffers like carparks , fences, other buildings and walkways so that makes "closer" further away
