Ahead of England’s World Cup round-of-16 match against Mexico at Estadio Azteca, multiple reports say FIFA considers changes to the kick-off time due to concerns about thunderstorms in Mexico City. Several outlets link the uncertainty to forecasts and real-time weather conditions near the stadium, describing lightning and thunder that create disruption around the scheduled start. One report states FIFA was exploring the possibility of moving the match earlier than the planned 6 p.m. local time, with coverage mentioning a potential rescheduling to an earlier kick-off and a brief adjustment attempt. However, other reporting indicates FIFA later confirms that the timetable will not be changed. In the UK, at least one outlet says the match is set to start at 1 a.m. BST on Monday morning, after FIFA’s decision. Additional coverage describes how the possibility of a six-hour shift becomes known through inquiries involving football officials and players before any final confirmation. Overall, sources agree that storm risk prompts FIFA review and stadium-related disruptions, but that FIFA ultimately decides against a permanent time change.
