About the Stadium:

The Estadio Nacional Las Delicias is a sports venue dedicated to the professional practice of soccer in El Salvador, it is currently the home of the Santa Tecla Fútbol Club and has a capacity to receive 10,000 fans in its seats. In fact, at the beginning the stadium only had a capacity for 3,000 people, but an expansion in 2007 allowed it to be increased and there are plans to continue with the same as part of a modernization project.
