"Metalist" Oblast Sports Complex (Ukrainian: Обласний спортивний комплекс "Металіст"), which includes the Metalist Stadium (Ukrainian: Стадіон "Металіст"), is a multi-use stadium in Kharkiv, Ukraine. It is used chiefly for football matches and is the home stadium of FC Metalist 1925 Kharkiv. The stadium, which was a venue for Euro 2012, currently seats 40,003 spectators.
After FC Metalist Kharkiv financially collapsed in May 2016 professional football temporary disappeared from the stadium.[1] In August 2016, Metalist 1925 Kharkiv made the stadium its home stadium.[2] Shakhtar Donetsk followed suit in February 2017.[1]
