Background

San Siro, officially the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, is a 75,923-capacity football stadium in Milan shared by AC Milan and Inter Milan since 1947. It hosted the 2025-26 Serie A fixture on 11 May 2026 in which Christian Pulisic scored twice to tie Lautaro Martínez at the top of the Capocannoniere, ending Pulisic's 134-day Italian football scoring drought.

Built in 1926 and progressively expanded, San Siro is one of the most iconic venues in European football history. It hosted the 1990 World Cup final and the 2016 Champions League final. Both Milan clubs have publicly discussed leaving San Siro for a new purpose-built stadium; the debate remained unresolved as of 2026.

San Siro is not a 2026 World Cup venue — the tournament is hosted in North America — but it retains global attention as the workplace of World Cup-bound players including Pulisic and Lautaro Martínez. The stadium's capacity and matchday atmosphere make it a benchmark for World Cup stadium comparisons.
