Estadio Carlos Dittborn, Municipal football stadium in Arica, Chile

The Carlos Dittborn Stadium contains a grass field measuring 105 by 68 meters and includes a surrounding athletic track for various sports competitions.

The stadium opened on April 15, 1962, just before the FIFA World Cup in Chile, where it hosted Group 1 matches between Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, Uruguay, and Colombia.

The venue stands as a central sports facility in northern Chile, providing regular matches for the local football club CD San Marcos de Arica.

The stadium features a main grandstand with roof coverage and maintains a current seating arrangement for 9,956 spectators following renovations in 2014.

Colombian player Marcos Coll scored the only Olympic goal in World Cup history at this stadium, directly from a corner kick against Soviet goalkeeper Lev Yashin.
