This was the second longest stop of the tournament, with Benafika, another two -hour stoppage was delayed at the beginning of her match against Auckland City.

However, that tournament has been expanded to 48 teams, which means that these incidents will be likely to happen in the next summer.
Potential solutions may include carrying the World Cup in winter months, as Qatar did in 2022, but severe cold is also an issue in parts of the US and Canada.

FIFA also released a statement at the time of the incident, which was read: “Due to adverse weather conditions in Charlot, the risk of electricity in the vicinity of the Bank of America Stadium, the FIFA club World Cup match between SL Benfika and Chelsea FC has been suspended.
