Fans are on edge following the latest updates.

Details: According to SportBible, the World Cup round of 16 clash between Mexico and England, scheduled for July 6, is under threat of being postponed due to adverse weather conditions. The Meteorological Service forecasts severe thunderstorms in Mexico City on match day.

Meteorologists predict the storm front will hit the city about an hour before kick-off, with the heaviest rain and lightning expected between 5:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. local time—right during the match window.

If the weather poses a risk to players and fans, organizers may decide to temporarily suspend or postpone the start of the match. A final decision will be made closer to kick-off after on-site assessments at the stadium.
