Stade du Pays de Charleroi

Stade du Pays de Charleroi is a football stadium in the city of Charleroi, Belgium. It was built for the 2000 UEFA European Championship in Belgium and The Netherlands in replacement of the old stadium known as Mambourg. It is the home of Sporting Charleroi. Its capacity was of 30,000 for the EC but was reduced shortly after to 22,000 due to the poor league attendance.
