The Racing Club Stadium (Spanish: Estadio Racing Club; Spanish pronunciation: [estˈaðjo ɾɾˈaθiŋ klˈub]), today known as Alsina y Colón Stadium (Spanish: Estadio de Alsina y Colón; Spanish pronunciation: [estˈaðjo dˈe alsˈina ˈi kolˈon]), was an association football stadium in Avellaneda, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina.
It was the home ground of Racing Club before they moved to Estadio Juan Domingo Perón in 1950, and was located in the intersection of Alsina and Colón streets, hence been sometimes referred as 'Estadio de Alsina y Colón'. The stadium held 50,000 spectators. It was one of two stadiums that hosted the first Copa América in 1916, along with Gimnasia y Esgrima.
The stadium was closed in December 1946 to build the Estadio Presidente Juan Domingo Perón which was inaugurated in 1950.
