#SardegnaArena #Sant'Elia #Cagliari
The Unipol Domus is a football stadium in Cagliari, Sardinia, Italy. Built in 2017 as Sardegna Arena, it hosts Cagliari Calcio football matches from 2017–18, since Stadio Sant'Elia was closed and partially demolished in order to build a new stadium.
It was used as a provisional stadium until 2021 when the construction was fully completed and name changed to Unipol Domus.
Cagliari Calcio, commonly referred to as Cagliari, is an Italian football club based in Cagliari, Sardinia.
In the 2023–24 season, they compete in Serie A.
Founded in 1920, they won their first and only Scudetto in 1969–70, when they were led by the Italian national team's all-time leading scorer, Gigi Riva.
The triumph was also the first by a club from south of Rome.
The club's best European performance was in the 1993–94 UEFA Cup, reaching the semi-finals before losing to eventual winners Internazionale.
As with the flag of its city, Cagliari's colours are blue and red.
The club badge incorporates the flag of Sardinia.
The official red and blue colours of Cagliari mirror those featured on the stemma of Cagliari.
The red parts of the stemma are a reference to the coat of arms of the House of Savoy, a family which was previously the monarchy of Italy and more relevantly to Cagliari in particular, the Kingdom of Sardinia.
The blue part of the stemma features the sky and the sea, also a castle this is because the old historic centre of Cagliari is walled and called the Castello.
Due to the use of these colours on their shirt in halves, the club is commonly nicknamed rossoblu.
Cagliari have had several different logo designs during their history, all of which feature the flag of Sardinia.
Usually the badge also features the club colours if there is a change, the main difference has been the colour of the border or the shape.
Since June 2015, the badge features an "Old French"-shaped escutcheon with red and blue halves, with the club's name written in white just above the flag of Sardinia.
The Moors' heads have, for the first time, been turned to the right as of 2015 so as to match the Sardinian flag after it was updated in 1992.
Due to the fact that Cagliari are the main club from the island of Sardinia, they are nicknamed the "Isolani".
