This World Cup qualifying campaign has had its share of ups and downs for the United States. Still, they’re in a position to qualify for Qatar 2022 as long as they can win their final two home matches.
But winning those home matches is absolutely imperative. The first of those is tonight against Honduras in conditions that really aren’t fit for outdoor activity.
Gametime temperatures are expected to be in the low single-digits with a windchill that will bring it into negative numbers. U.S. Soccer’s own guidelines suggest postponing games in these types of situations. Players will instead be outfitted with a host of warming measures both on the field and on the bench.
