The PSG kicks off its Club World Cup run this Sunday, June 15 at noon (local time) against Atlético Madrid — in scorching heat.
Pasadena is set to hit 31°C (88°F), with a feels-like temperature of 38°C (100°F) and a UV index at the max: 11. The match will be played at the iconic Rose Bowl, infamous for the 1994 World Cup final — a game remembered as being played in an “open-air sauna.”
Thirty years later, nothing’s changed. The midday start time? Blame it on European prime time. But for the players, it’s going to be a brutal opener.
