The 2025 Club World Cup is quickly turning into a weather nightmare. On Friday, the second half of the match between Benfica and Auckland was delayed due to severe thunderstorms — marking the fourth match interruption since the start of the tournament!
Just days earlier, the Salzburg vs. Pachuca clash was suspended for over 90 minutes in Cincinnati because of a violent storm. The game eventually resumed, with the Austrians winning 2–1 thanks to goals from Gloukh and Onisiwo.
With tornadoes, storms, and repeated delays, the extreme weather conditions in the United States are raising serious concerns — especially with the 2026 World Cup just a year away. It’s becoming a real logistical headache for organizers… and a physical challenge for the players.
