Leipzig's 'Zentralstadion', or Central Stadium, is an interesting mix of old and new. A new millennium structure nestling within a post-war, former eastern bloc concrete bowl of a sports stadium. The new 45,000 all-seater ground actually sits inside the old 100,000 capacity bowl, built on a ringed mound of wartime rubble. Mar 25, 2005, 17:02

Stadium gallery 1 The Central Stadium in Leipzig is a unique mixture of old and new. This collage of photos shows how the exterior of the old, bombastic post-war sports stadium has been retained as the outer surround of the new ultra-modern football ground now nestled within it. Mar 13, 2005, 20:44

Stadium gallery 2 Like a spaceship that has landed in the man-made amphitheatre of what was once Germany's largest sports stadium, Leipzig's new Zentalstadion is a modern 45,000 all-seater ground literally plonked down inside the perimeter of its predecessor. This set of photos gives you a look inside. Mar 13, 2005, 21:21
