The Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, commonly referred to as simply San Siro, is the football stadium of the city of Milan, one of the most famous and prestigious stadiums of Europe. It is famous mainly with the name of San Siro because it is located in the San Siro district, and that was actually its name till 1980, when it was entitled to Giuseppe Meazza, the two-time World Cup winner (1934, 1938) who played for Internazionale.
