Mexico vs England delayed an hour due to lightning storm

Mexico’s historic World Cup clash with England has been delayed by an hour, rescheduled to 19:00, after a lightning storm protocol was invoked at Estadio Azteca. The Mexican side arrives unbeaten, having beaten South Africa, South Korea, Czech Republic and Ecuador, and aims to reach the quarter‑finals for the first time in 40 years.

England, one of the tournament favourites, will face the challenge of playing above 2,240 metres and in a packed Azteca. The winner will later meet Norway, who defeated Brazil 2‑1. The match remains a key story as Mexico seeks its best performance in decades. albergomalica.it
