'das Stadion' and 'das Fussballstadion' both mean large facilities with stands for spectators. 'Stadion' is more general and can be used for different sports or even for concerts. 'Fussballstadion' is more precise and clearly says that the facility is intended for football. The words can be confused because many stadiums are football stadiums. If the sport is not important or can vary, 'Stadion' is enough. If you are explicitly talking about football, 'Fussballstadion' is more precise.
