MOSKVA LUŽNJIKI I SPARTAK
Sa duplo više stanovnika od drugoplasiranog Sankt Pe- terburga, Moskva je najveci grad u Rusiji. Moderna pre- stonica puna istorijskih spomenika jedan je od razloga što Moskvu svake godine vidi više od četiri miliona tu- rista. Crveni trg je za većinu prva stanica, ali ima još to- liko toga da se vidi u ovom prelepom gradu. Moskva je, inače, jedini grad na ovom Svetskom prvenstvu koji će ponuditi dva svoja stadiona. Stadion Spartak (poznat i kao Otkritije arena) noviji je od dva, otvoren 2014. go- dine i prima 45.000 gledalaca. Dom je fudbalskog kluba Spartak, pa je karakterističan crveno-beli eksterijer za- pravo posveta timu. Lužnjiki je najstariji i najveci stadi- on na turniru, a biće domacin prvog meča, polufinala i finala Svetskog prvenstva 15. jula.

MOSCOW LUZHNIKI AND SPARTAK
With twice as many people as its closest competitor Saint Petersburg, Moscow is the largest city in Russia. It’s mod- ern, yet steeped in history and this attractive combina- tion is a big reason it sees more than four million tourists every year. For most visitors, Red Square is the first stop in Moscow but there is so much more to see in this global city. Moscow is the only city at this World Cup with more than one venue. Spartak Stadium (also known as Otkri- tie Arena) is the newer of the two, having opened in 2014 with capacity for 45,000 spectators. Home to the Spartak Football Club, the stadium’s distinctive red and white ex- terior pays homage to the team. The iconic Luzhniki Sta- dium is both the oldest and largest stadium in the tour- nament and will host the opening match, a semifinal and the World Cup Final on 15 th July.
