Estadio Víctor Legrotaglie

Estadio Víctor Antonio Legrotaglie is a football stadium located at the General San Martín Park in the city of Mendoza of the homonymous province, Argentina.

The venue was named after Víctor Legrotaglie, former player and manager of Gimnasia y Esgrima and largely regarded as the greatest idol in club's history.

In 1975, the stadium was named "Víctor Legrotaglie" to honor the footballer that played several tenures for Gimnasia y Esgrima (alternating with other clubs) between 1953 and 1974.

Works included the construction of a gym under the west stalls, a pit surrounding the pitch (which allowed to removed the fence), plantation of grass, painting of stands and exterior walls.

The sector was named "Juan Gilberto Funes" in honor of the former player of the club that had a successful tenure on the River Plate team that won the 1986 Copa Libertadores and 1986 Intercontinental Cup.
