Shanghai’s Soccer Stadium

A player in England’s top soccer league is leaving to play in China.

Superstar striker Nicolas Anelka has signed a multimillion dollar deal to play for a team called Shanghai Shenhua.

So, for the Geo Quiz today we are asking the name of the stadium in Shanghai where Anelka will be playing soon.

It is located in the older part of the city, on the west bank of the Huangpu River and to get there, all you have to do is to hop onto Shanghai’s Metro line number 8.

Hongkou Stadium in Shanghai is the answer to the Geo Quiz.
