France-Iraq match interrupted, panic at World Cup

The World Cup match between France and Iraq has been officially suspended for at least 30 minutes, confirming earlier warnings about bad weather in Philadelphia.

Tournament organizers made this emergency decision in accordance with safety protocols, as electrical storms and frequent lightning seriously endangered players on the field and spectators in the open stands.

Fans present at the stadium have been instructed to immediately leave their seats and take shelter in closed and safe areas of the arena.

FIFA officials and match delegates are monitoring the meteorological situation step by step to determine whether the match can resume after this half hour or if there will be another longer postponement.
