Beijing Fengtai Stadium, Multi-purpose stadium in Wulidian Subdistrict, Beijing, China.
Beijing Fengtai Stadium is the stadium of the Fengtai Sports Centre in Wulidian Subdistrict, Fengtai District, Beijing. It is a multi-purpose venue used mostly for football and sometimes for athletics, with a capacity of 31,043 spectators.
The stadium hosted football matches of the 11th Asian Games in 1990 and of the 7th National Games of China. Beijing Guoan used it as home ground from 2006 to 2008, and Beijing Renhe from 2016 to 2019. In August 2007 Guoan played Spain's FC Barcelona here.
Beijing Guoan fans call the ground "Fengti", and its stands hold the memory of the "Fengti rainy night" of 4 October 2007, when a last-minute goal by Changchun Yatai's Elivis Scott gave Guoan a 0-1 loss and cost the club the initiative in the title race. Ten years later, on 8 October 2017, Beijing Renhe clinched promotion to the Chinese Super League there on another rainy night, beating Xinjiang Ticai.
The stadium sits in the Fengtai Sports Centre in Wulidian Subdistrict, southwest Beijing, and is reached by the city's subway and bus network. It is a football ground first, so check which club is playing at home before travelling, as the tenant has changed several times since 2006.
On 4 October 2007, in a rain-soaked match later called the "Fengti Rainy Night", Beijing Guoan lost 0-1 to Changchun Yatai after Elivis Scott scored in stoppage time, costing them the initiative in the title race. Ten years later, on 8 October 2017, Beijing Renhe beat Xinjiang Ticai on a rainy night at the same ground to secure promotion to the Chinese Super League.
