MEXICO CITY — The World Cup match between Mexico and England is likely to have its kick-off time changed due to the risk of weather disruption including flooding, sources told ESPN.
Kick-off is set to become 12 p.m. local time at the Azteca Stadium, which is 7 p.m. in the UK and 2 p.m ET.
FIFA took lessons from last year’s Club World Cup which was blighted by six major weather delays in 63 matches. The governing body is now in ongoing discussions to move the Mexico vs. England kick-off time amid the threat of bad weather, sources told ESPN.
