The match between Juventus and Al Ain may not take place. What's the reason?

In the opening round of the Club World Cup group stage, Juventus are set to face the UAE side Al Ain. However, the match may now be at risk of cancellation.

Details: The encounter is scheduled for Audi Field in Washington, but the US capital is currently gripped by severe weather—a thunderstorm has hit the city and, according to meteorologists, it isn't expected to subside any time soon.

There is a ban in the United States on holding sporting events during thunderstorms for safety reasons. This applies to professional, school, and amateur competitions alike.

One Club World Cup match has already been postponed: the clash between Mamelodi Sundowns and Ulsan HD was delayed by 65 minutes due to adverse weather in the host city.

Reminder: The match between Aryna Sabalenka and Rebeka Masarova was suspended. The reason and the resumption time are known.
