Stadium
Estádio Adelmar da Costa Carvalho
Recife, Brazil
Estádio Adelmar da Costa Carvalho is a ground that presents itself plainly enough to be mistaken for any other concrete block in a tropical city.
On the pitch, the centre circle is marked with chalk lines.
The stadium has sat in the Ilha do Retiro neighbourhood since 1937, a date that meant little to the casual observer until the architecture of the surrounding streets began to change. It is not particularly large, but the proximity of the stands to the touchline ensures that nothing gets lost once the game begins. The identity of the place is tied strictly to its inhabitants.
When the lights switch on, the floodlights cast a sharp glare that cuts through the humidity.
