With the renovations, the stadium increased its capacity from 83,000 to 87,500. What's more, they added new seats, a new sound system, two video screens, new locker rooms, and a hybrid pitch was installed.
The first official match in the new and improved Azteca will take place this evening as Mexico take on Portugal in a friendly.
