June 14Jun 14 This is the first match I’m watching properly this World Cup.How long have hydration breaks been a thing? I’m sure that they were at the 2022 World Cup,, but wasn’t that because it was in Qatar?

I’m sure that they were at the 2022 World Cup,, but wasn’t that because it was in Qatar?In my eyes it’s the US channels pushing for it, it’s really annoying me in fact as in some games it changes the momentum and not all games are being played with high temps. It’s an enforced thing which I don’t approve of at all. Just because the Americans can’t watch a sport where there isn’t scores every 30 secs and ad breaks throughout.
