Anton Malatinský Stadium (Slovak:Štadión Antona Malatinského) is afootballstadium located inTrnava, Slovakia, which is the home ground of the local football clubSpartak Trnava. The stadium was completely renovated in 2013–2015 and has an all-seated capacity of 18,200[1] which makes it the second-largestfootball stadium in Slovakia.
On 14 January 1998, the stadium was named in the honour of former footballer and managerAnton Malatinský, who died in 1992.[2]
The stadium underwent a complex reconstruction between 2013 and 2015. The project consisted not only of a complete reconstruction of the stadium, but the construction of an adjacentshopping centre namedCity Arena. The whole construction cost of the project was €79 million, of which €28 million was the cost of stadium reconstruction. TheSlovak government provided €13 million of the cost.[3]
Spartak Trnava officially announced their intention to develop the stadium on 25 November 2011, after that preparation works began immediately. Three out of four stands (including the oldfloodlights) were completely demolished between April and August 2013. Aconstruction permit was granted in August 2013 andcornerstone of the stadium was placed in September 2013. Spartak Trnava continued playing at the stadium during the reconstruction, with only West Stand in service. In May 2015, the last of the four stands was demolished and subsequently rebuilt.[4]
The opening ceremony of the new stadium took place on 22 August 2015. In the opening match,Spartak Trnava lost toBrazilian clubAtlético Paranaense 0–2.[5][6]
