Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla, originally named Estadio Ramón de Carranza, stands in Cádiz, Spain. It is the home ground of Cádiz CF. The stadium was originally inaugurated on 3 September 1955, following the 1947 Cádiz explosion that destroyed the former sports complex on the same site. The stadium was named after Ramón de Carranza y Fernández Reguera, a former mayor of Cádiz. The inaugural match was played against FC Barcelona, with Barcelona winning 4-0, thanks to two goals from Villaverde and one from Luis Suárez (no mention of Kubala in the source).
The stadium was rebuilt between 1983 and 1984, after its first demolition. The rebuilt stadium has a capacity of 20,724 seats. Spain's national football team played their first official match on the Ramón de Carranza against Malta in UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying on 15 November 2019.
