🚨 Surprise move: FIFA reportedly plans to move a World Cup last-16 tie

🚨 Surprise move: FIFA reportedly plans to move a World Cup last-16 tie The weather is a crucial factor at the 2026 World Cup. The conditions now apparently mean that the round-of-16 match between co-hosts Mexico and England will have to be rescheduled.  According to the BBC, FIFA is considering moving the match at the Azteca Stadium in Mexico City to an earlier time. Originally, the game was scheduled for 6 p.m. local time. That corresponds to a kickoff time of 2 a.m. CEST.  Reports say the highly anticipated round-of-16 match could be brought forward by six hours, to 12 noon local time or 8 p.m. Central European Summer Time. Weather forecasts in Mexico indicate that severe thunderstorms and heavy rain could hit around the original kickoff time, which could lead to delays. As happened, among others, in France vs. Iraq or most recently Mexico vs. Ecuador. So far, FIFA has not yet confirmed any decision.
