Astana Groundhopping...

May be of interest to some of you...

There appears (on Google maps satellite) a large stadium slightly north-east of the Radisson SAS (north side of the river).

It would appear this was the historic home of Astana-1964; a club who have seemingly gone out of existance.

 

So, we are playing at the Astana Arena; home of 'new' club, Astana FC (created in the same way as Red Bull Leipzig, I suppose). 

Astana-1964 existed before and long enough to cross-swords with the new Astana FC, but not for long it would appear.
