Sports News] At 8:30 on Wednesday, November 22nd, Beijing time, Brazil will
host Argentina in the sixth round of the South American World Cup qualifiers.
During this game, which will take place in Rio de Janeiro, Brazilian media
reports suggest that the temperature may exceed 35°C. It is worth noting that
Brazil is currently experiencing a heatwave across many regions. Recently, Rio
de Janeiro recorded a temperature of 59.3 degrees Celsius, breaking the
previous record of 58.5 degrees Celsius set just the previous Tuesday. Fortunately,
the heatwave is expected to subside in the coming days with the forecast of
rain over the weekend. However, for Wednesday’s game, the meteorological
department predicts that the temperature will still surpass 35°C, making the
conditions extremely challenging. The players are likely to face unbearable
heat, and this game could be quite demanding for them.
