The Veltins Arena, home to Schalke 04, is one of the most modern stadia in Europe, with a retractable roof and a floating pitch that is slid out into the car park to expose it to the elements in between games.
With capacity for international matches of over 53,500, the Arena will stage group games and a quarter-final match in the World Cup. Dec 21, 2004, 19:26
