Without wishing to exaggerate… it’s so hot at the stadium in Miami that when I stepped off the air conditioned bus, my glasses immediately steamed up with the wall of heat hit.
It is searingly hot but, incredibly, it is nowhere as hot as yesterday here in Miami.
Yesterday was incredibly humid, a damp heat, whereas today is just hot, hot, hot.
I’m stood outside waiting for the media entrance to open while sweating. I can’t even begin to imagine what it will be like for the players trying to play in this heat.
The Norway manager talked yesterday about needing to keep the ball because of the temperatures.
By the way, the local forecasts – which have been pretty reliable – have less than a 50 per cent chance of rain through the game time.
