Mega facility set to host UEFA Futsal Cup Final Four

Imposing is the best way to describe the Almaty Arena: the stage for the UEFA Futsal Cup Final Four which will see Sporting CP face Gazprom-Ugra Yugorsk on Friday.

The mega structure cost approximately 238 million euro to build and houses a 12,000 seater arena, in addition to a smaller facility with 3,000 seats and an Olympic swimming pool.

Sporting CP vice-president Vicente Moura is traveling with the squad for the event and was equally impressed with the facility: "Overall it is the best I have seen in my life. It is modern and has technology I have never seen before. t looks really nice from the outside too."
