The female version of the Champions League finals took place at the stadium, as well.
Allianz Stadium’s history
Before Juventus played at the Stadio delle Alpi, they played at the Stadio Comunale. It can be stated that Juventus fans weren’t really thrilled about the club moving to the Stadio delle Alpi. The stadium was built especially for the 1990 World Cup but the expenses of the stadium's construction were high and it was found to be inaccessible after its completion. Due to the supporters’ dislike towards the stadium, it wasn’t visited much; the average attendance of the stadium was a third of the capacity. Fans were finally satisfied after Juventus had accepted a new project: the construction of the Allianz Stadium. The Allianz Stadium would look more like the beloved Stadio Comunale.
