🚨 Hydration breaks reportedly rejected for Euro 2028

Hydration breaks that turn the match into four quarters are a controversial issue in football, especially because they were used to sell advertising during broadcasts.

“NO HABRÁ PAUSAS PARA BEBER AL ESTILO DEL MUNDIAL” ❌ ⚽️ Un portavoz de la UEFA ha confirmado que NO se encuentran contempladas este tipo de interrupciones forzosas de tres minutos en los partidos de la Eurocopa 2028 ☀️ Seguirán sus normas e implementarán estos descansos solo

"There will be no World Cup-style drinking breaks," the spokesperson reportedly told the British outlet, since although they are already provided for in UEFA regulations, they are only put into effect if the temperature in the host country exceeds 32°.
