re: Heat Breaks in Gold Cup

One break in each half, usually about 30 minutes into the half. These were introduced in the last World Cup, and other FIFA tournaments and even individual leagues have adopted them now. I don't know if there's a specific temperature threshold, but most games I've seen above 80 degrees Fahrenheit have had the mandatory hydration breaks. I would guess the threshold is in Celsius degrees, maybe 25.

One of the best things FIFA has done in a while. Keeps the players safe and doesn't take away from the game.
