A Scotland versus Brazil match in the 2026 World Cup, scheduled to take place in Miami, Florida, is facing potential delays due to a severe weather alert. Forecasters predict heavy rain and thunderstorms in the area, prompting FIFA to closely monitor the conditions. Concerns arise from a previous World Cup qualifying match between France and Iraq which experienced a delayed kickoff due to similar weather. US authorities have strict safety protocols regarding lightning, mandating a 30-minute suspension of outdoor activities if lightning is detected within an eight-mile radius of the stadium. A temporary postponement of the match is possible if these conditions are met. FIFA and local authorities are continuing to assess the situation and will make a decision regarding the game’s start time as necessary. The match is a crucial fixture in Group C of the tournament.
