Luzhniki, which is located in Moscow, has hosted major competitions. Some of them include:

  • the World Athletics Championships;
  • and even the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

History of the stadium

The 1952 Olympics were the first major international sports competition where the Soviet Union participated. This brought excellent results for the country, and for this reason, the government decided to build a great stadium that could match their performances. Right now, live streaming bet on 1xbet.com.gh/live/ is available, and allows fans to enjoy some great details from multiple sporting events played here.

 

The Soviet government spared no efforts, and in order to complete the facility in time, they brought resources and workers from all over the country. The facility was officially opened in 1956. The first football match to take place at the facility took place on the 31st of July 1956, between China and the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic squad.

 

Currently, the Russian national team plays many of its home matches here, and on 1xBet it is possible to watch a great live streaming and bet on it.

The 1980 Summer Olympics and later story

Of course, as it was the most important sports facility in the entire Soviet Union, Luzhniki played a key part in the 1980 Summer Olympics. The event was celebrated in the city of Moscow, and in Luzhniki itself there were many sports events that were celebrated. Some disciplines included athletics, jumping, and of course, football.
