National Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in Dili, East Timor. It is used mostly for association football matches. The stadium holds 5,000, but has never hosted an international match.
A tournament held between East Timorese national teams, a UN Police team and Australian and New Zealand combined teams was conducted in May 2007.
Playing football in East Timor is difficult because temperatures can reach 40 degrees Celsius and the pitch at the stadium is rock solid, with dry grass on it and patches where it is just pure stones.
