I've rapidly soured on the concept of "unique". What's unwelcoming about this stadium? It's a rectangular building around a rectangular field. At least it looks like it was designed by an adult.
Would you rather have Audi Field (2018) that looks like an 8 year old built it out of Legos?

How about Shell Energy Stadium (2012), designed by someone who watched The Running Man a few too many times?

I looked for sleek contemporary soccer stadiums, didn't find any.
