Estadio Antonio Romero

Formosa's ground shares its origin story with Argentina's most famous name in football: the pitch opened on 16 July 1981 with a friendly, and the first goal ever scored there came from Diego Maradona, then preparing with the national side for the 1982 World Cup. It was known simply as the Estadio de la Liga Formoseña de Fútbol at the time, still the property of the league that built it, and it took a decade before it was renamed for Antonio Romero, the league president credited with pushing the project through.

Between 2013 and 2018 the stadium became a regular Copa Argentina venue, drawing clubs well above the province's usual footballing weight. A semi-final between Atlético Rafaela and Huracán also passed through Formosa. Reconstruction work under league president Jorge Jofré left the ground rebuilt and reopened with Governor Gildo Insfrán in attendance, though the renovation was not trouble-free: in April 2013 part of the floor and a wall in the conference hall by the main entrance collapsed, injuring one person.

Outside football, the venue has hosted concerts by Ricardo Montaner , Damas Gratis , Piñón Fijo and Marky Ramone . It also once stood in for another city entirely: in 1995, Corrientes side Club Deportivo Mandiyú played its home matches here while its own infrastructure was unfit for use. Today it remains the base for Formosa's Sportivo Patria.
