Estadio Pocitos was a multi-use stadium in Montevideo, Uruguay, that does not exist today. This stadium was mainly used for football matches of the owner club Peñarol from 1921 to 1933.Later it was demolished in the 30's decade because Peñarol started to play in the Estadio Centenario as its home field,and besides that,due to the increase of the urban part of the city that literally ate the field.The first FIFA World Cup goal was scored in this stadium by the French player Laurent.
This stadium was one of the firsts soccer stadiums to include elliptical stands, taken from ancient Greek theatres models. It has been said that the Estadio Centenario was planned to be a "giant version" of this stadium. Included in a German book of the 40 most influential stadiums in history.
