England’s World Cup last‑16 match against Mexico is now expected to be moved to 19:00 BST on Sunday, according to reports reaching Softfootball.
Softfootball understands that FIFA is preparing to bring the game forward, shifting it from the original 01:00 BST on Monday (18:00 local time in Mexico City) to an earlier slot at the Azteca Stadium.
Forecasts for Mexico City indicate possible thunderstorms and heavy rainfall around the initial kickoff time, prompting concerns over pitch conditions, visibility and overall match safety. However, FIFA has not yet provided an official explanation, leaving fans and analysts awaiting confirmation.
