The National Stadium, originally built in 1958, was remodeled and expanded specifically for the 1962 World Cup in Chile. Its former velodrome was replaced with galleries and the stadium reached a capacity of 95,000. The stadium hosted the Group B matches—comprising Chile, West Germany, Italy, and Switzerland—and also hosted the quarterfinal matches.
