Se tracta de
 
Camp Nou el estadio del Fútbol Club Barcelona:
• La construcción empezó en el año 1953.
• el estadio fue inaugurado en septiembre de 1957.
• su capacidad de noventa y ocho mil expectadores.
se tracta del estadio de fútbol con más capacidad de Europa y el décimo del mundo.


Should it be ''se trata de''? I don't recognise ''se tracta de''.

Many thanks.

According to the RAE, 'tractar' means the same as 'tratar', but has fallen out of use.
It's a perfectly good verb in català, however, which is one of two official languages spoken in Barcelona. So, you're just looking at a case where a translator wasn't thorough.

Once again, thanks so much, Rusty, much appreciated. had never heard of the verb 'tractar'.
