## Resource

FIFA nearly threw England vs. Mexico into chaos with a last-minute 30-minute delay proposal—disrupting training, meals, and sleep for both teams. England learned of the potential change via media, sparking frustration, while Mexico’s coach called it a “kick in the gut” for derailing their game plan. Despite players like Marcus Rashford’s readiness, the lack of direct communication from FIFA hurt focus and routines. Thankfully, FIFA ultimately stuck with the original kickoff, preserving the teams’ carefully planned strategies and avoiding the ripple effects of last-minute uncertainty.
