Estadio Daniel Alcides Carrión is a multi-use stadium located in Cerro de Pasco, Peru.[1] It is used by football team Unión Minas. The stadium holds 8,000 people and is the highest stadium in the world, with an altitude of 4,380 meters (13,973 ft) above sea level.[2][3] This makes it very difficult for players who are not used to playing at this height and has caused some controversy.
