THERE are few stadiums where you can nip to McDonald’s and H&M at half-time and make it back for the second half.

But at this unique ground you might just manage it.

The Voždovac Stadium stands on the roof of a SHOPPING CENTRE but can still sit 5,175 fans.

The Vozdovac Stadium is also officially known as Stadion Shopping Center.

And it has a McDonald’s and H&M within it.

There’s an Intersport as well if fans fancy buying a replica shirt on the way out.

The Vozdovac stadium opened in 2013 and is approved by Uefa to host Champions League and Europa League games if required.

It is one of the few rooftop stadiums in the world.

Similar to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and Wembley, the stadium utilises escalators to helps fans get to their seats.

Week in, week out, the stadium is home to Belgrade side Vozdovac, a minnow who have made their way to Serbia‘s first division this season.

But to aid the club with revenue, it’s loaned out to Red Star’s youth side for their Uefa Youth League games due to its Uefa approved status.

That’s led to Manchester City taking on Red Star Belgrade there this week in the Champions League.

City’s youth team managed to do the business at the Stadion Shopping Centre, with a 2-2 draw enough to see them advance to the knockout stages of the Uefa Youth League.
