GlobeStadiums

The International Stadium of Yokohama (横浜国際総合競技場, Yokohama Kokusai Sōgō Kyōgi-jō?) has 73,237 seats, and was inaugurated in March 1998. It is the home stadium of Yokohama F. Marinos of the J. League.

It hosted three first-round games during the Football World Cup 2002, and the final game between Germany and Brazil was played there on June 30, 2002 (the game was won by Brazil, 2–0).

From March 1, 2005, its name was changed to Nissan Stadium (日産スタジアム, Nissan Sutajiamu?) to reflect the sponsorship of the Nissan Motor Co.

It hosted some matches of the 2005 FIFA Club World Championship, including the finals. During the tournament, its name was temporarily reverted to the original due to FIFA requirements (FIFA does not recognise sponsorship of stadia at official FIFA events).
