The Club World Cup has turned into an absolute circus, and the main culprit is the scandalous interruption of the Chelsea vs. Benfica match! Imagine this — the game was stopped at the 86th minute due to severe weather around Charlotte, and players and fans had to endure a whopping TWO HOUR break! Yes, you read that right, TWO HOURS! While everyone waited for the storm to pass, Benfica managed to equalize in the 95th minute and force extra time, where Chelsea eventually triumphed 4-1. But Chelsea’s coach Enzo Maresca couldn’t hide his fury and frustration. “This is not football!” Maresca shouted, making it clear that such interruptions kill the spirit of the game. If a match has to be stopped for safety reasons, maybe football isn’t the right place for such conditions, he added. Imagine — fans spent nearly five hours in the stands, all because of poor organization and bad weather. Is this sport or torture? While Maresca wonders where football’s magic went, we wonder — who’s to blame for this chaos? The organizers? The weather? Or someone else? Either way, this is a prime example of how NOT to run a Club World Cup. What do you think? Has football lost its shine or was this just a bad day? Drop your thoughts and let’s see which side you’re on in this football drama!
