Fast 40 degrees Post: Chelsea s temperature is expected to be 39 degrees in the next game, FIFA contacts experts to ensure

June 22 The Post reported that Chelsea's next Club World Cup hopes for Tunisia may face severe tests of high temperatures as high as 39 degrees.

Chelsea is training in Philadelphia. It is predicted that local temperatures will soar to 39 degrees Celsius by then. Juventus will also play at the same stadium, and the Philadelphia state of emergency will take effect from noon

FIFA said their medical experts are in contact with the clubs participating in the World Cup to discuss how to deal with high temperatures and high humidity, with the priority being to ensure everyone's safety.

To adapt to the heat, Maresca had to limit the playing time for some players with a history of muscle injuries such as Reese James and Lavia. The team took a day off yesterday to manage the workload of the players.

Unlike Chelsea's previous match against Los Angeles FC was held at the Atlanta stadium (which has enclosed roofs and large air-conditioning equipment), Lincoln Financial Stadium is an open-air venue. Both venues will be used during the 2026 World Cup, which will also be held in the US summer.
