According to the International Federation of Professional Footballers (FIFPro), FIFA should learn an important lesson from the Club World Cup being held in the USA. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
Next year, the World Cup will be hosted by the national teams of the USA, Canada, and Mexico. Considering the hot climate in the USA, FIFPro is requesting FIFA to extend the break time between matches in the 2026 World Cup from 15 minutes to 20 minutes.
Additionally, it is proposed to increase the breaks allocated for drinking water during each half. At the same time, it is recommended to schedule matches in the hottest areas for later times.
These measures are aimed at preserving the health of the players and ensuring their high level of participation in the game. The Goal portal provided information about these recommendations.
These proposals are important for protecting the health of players and increasing their efficiency in difficult climatic conditions. FIFA is expected to seriously consider these issues and take appropriate measures in future competitions.
