Why did westfalen Stadium change its name?
Although westfalen's name has been changed to "Signal Iduna Park", in the hearts of Dortmund fans, westfalen is where they belong forever. When the stadium was rebuilt in the 2006 World Cup in Germany, eight 62-meter-high huge yellow brackets were added around the Signal Park stadium in Iduna, which became a new symbol of it and even the whole city of Dortmund.
It has become a good tradition of the club that the attendance rate of Signal Park Stadium in Iduna can always be maintained at more than 80,000 people per game. To the pride of Dortmund fans, westfalen Stadium still maintains the world record of average attendance rate in the season. The seats in the south stand can accommodate 25,000 fans, but there are no seats in the stands. All the fans stood and watched the game.
The reason why the stadium is called a treasure trove of geomantic omen:
The German national team regards this place as a treasure trove of geomantic omen: when the life of the 2002 World Cup qualifiers hung by a thread, westfalen Stadium was the first thought of by the German Football Association. They hope to take advantage of the grand scene, horrible atmosphere and excellent traditions here to monopolize the weather, geographical location and human harmony and achieve the effect of defeating the enemy without fighting.
The final result also proves that the vision of the German Football Association is not empty. In the life-and-death battle at westfalen Stadium, the German national team basically ended the battle ahead of schedule with three lightning goals in just 20 minutes, and fortunately caught the last bus of the World Cup in Korea and Japan, and finally achieved the performance of runner-up.
