Craven Cottage

　　Craven Cottage is a professional football stadium located in the Hammersmith and Fulham district of London, England, and has been the home ground of Fulham Football Club since 1896. Situated by the River Thames, the name "Craven Cottage" originates from a royal hunting lodge, with a history dating back 300 years. The stadium was once used by the Australian national football team for friendly matches, mainly because a large number of their players were based in England (primarily in London). The Republic of Ireland national football team also played two matches at Craven Cottage.

　　In 2004, Craven Cottage underwent renovation, increasing its capacity from 22,000 to 25,700. Fulham set four sell-out attendance records during the 2009–2010 season: the matches against Arsenal (0–1 loss), Liverpool (3–1 win), Manchester United (3–0 win), and Hamburger SV (2–1 win). Additionally, it hosted the final of the 2010/11 UEFA Women's Champions League. According to official statistics, the stadium’s highest recorded attendance in history was 49,335, during a match against Millwall Football Club on October 8, 1938.
