September 24, 1957
The opening of Spotify Camp Nou was a momentous occasion for Barcelona and for the world of football. The stadium was built to replace the club's old stadium, Les Corts, which had become too small to accommodate the growing number of fans. Spotify Camp Nou was the largest stadium in Europe at the time of its opening, and it quickly became a symbol of Barcelona's status as a major footballing power.
The inaugural match at Spotify Camp Nou was a friendly between FC Barcelona and a Warsaw XI. Barcelona won the match 4-2, and Eulogio Martínez scored the first goal in Spotify Camp Nou history.
