Line 1:
A '''national stadium''' is a [[stadium]] that typically serves as the primary or exclusive home for one or more of a country's national representative sports teams. The term is most often used in reference to an [[football (soccer)|association football]] stadium. Usually, a national stadium will be in or very near a country's [[capital city]] or [[largest city]]. It is generally (but not always) the country's largest and most lavish [[sports]] venue. In many cases, but not all, it is also used by a club team. Many countries including the [[United States]], do not have a National Stadium designated as such.
Some well-known national stadiums are:

==[[Australia]]==
**[[Melbourne Cricket Ground]] ([[Australian rules football]], [[cricket]], and [[Athletics (track and field)|athletics]]) - often seen as the [[de facto]] national stadium due to historical links.
**[[Telstra Stadium]], the 2000 Sydney Olympic Stadium ([[rugby league]], [[rugby union]], and [[football (soccer)]]) - many feel this is the national football stadium. ''There exists a popular rivalry between Telstra Stadium and the MCG due to lasting rivalries between [[football]] codes and the respective cities.''
