Stade Gerland is Lyon, France's premier football stadium. It was opened to football fans in 1926. The Stade Gerland address is 353, Avenue Jean-Jaurès, 69007 Lyon. Following the Stade Gerland directions from the city it takes about 10 minutes to reach the venue by road. The stadium is home to Olympique Lyonnais and naturally the sales of Stade Gerland football tickets see a spike when the home teams plays here. The current capacity of the stadium is little over 48,000 and the venue boasts of excellent facilities. Olympique Lyonnais's, currently playing in Ligue 1, consistent performance over the years is a major reason behind the sustained interest of local people for the game and Stade Gerland tickets. The stadium hosted six games of 1998 FIFA World Cup including the quarter-final match between Croatia and Germany. In a sad incident during 2003 Confederations Cup match between Cameroon and Columbia, Cameroon footballer Marc-Vivien Foé collapsed on field and died.
