We all know that Qatar has the World Cup in like the next decade. But man, is that place hot or what? So instead of the games over there having two 45-minute halves, it could in fact be just three, 30-minutes halves.

Says the Telegraph:

The one thing Fifa do say, although it is for guidance, is if it’s 32C they will stop a match and play three 30-minute thirds rather than two 45-minute halves. The reason would be to re-hydrate the players before they could carry on playing.”

Interesting idea there.
