About

The City Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in George Town, Penang, Malaysia, and serves as the home stadium of the main Penang state football club, Penang F.C. The oldest built stadium still in use in Malaysia, it was built in 1932 by the British government. It is also well known for the vociferous home support, dubbed the "Keramat Roar".

The stadium was the site where Mohd Faiz Subri, a Penang FA player, scored a physics-defying free kick goal during a Malaysian Super League match in 2016. He was awarded the prestigious FIFA Puskás Award the following year for this particular effort.
