On this day in football: May 1, 1989, the world’s biggest football stadium opened in North Korea ????????

At its peak, the Rungrado 1st of May Stadium could hold up to 150,000 people. Today, it holds up to 114,000. It's a purely outrageous number, in a location you probably wouldn’t expect to host the world's biggest stadium.

North Korea is one of the most isolated countries in the world, meaning not many groundhoppers have had the chance to visit this arena.
