....are gonna be split into "quarters" (effectively) so that they can have a TV ad break in each half.
Top level football is great isn't it?
NB:
* I didn't even know the World Cup was on.
** I didn't even know England were playing.
***I won't be watching any of it (although I will really). [Post edited 5 Mar 14:16]

All so a country that calls football "soccer" and can't play it for shit can host the tournament for the second time in the last nine World Cups. What a time to be alive. |  |

“For every game, no matter where the games are played, no matter if there’s a roof, [or] temperature-wise, there will be a three-minute hydration break,” 2026 World Cup chief tournament officer Manolo Zubiria declared in a press release from FIFA. “It will be three minutes from whistle to whistle in both halves.
“Obviously, if there’s an injury [stoppage] at the moment of the 20th or 21st minute and it’s ongoing, this will be addressed on the spot with the referee.”  | | | |

TV ad breaks in addition to the advertising all around the pitch that we have to watch throughout the matches?! Advertising is getting out of hand. |  | | |

Further to that, any tournament that’s held in more than one country is automatically a rubbish, watered down, half-assed tournament. And that’s that.
Still looking for tickets, though. |  |
