Unseen Hurdles Mount: The 2025 Club World Cup is facing significant challenges, including low pre-tournament buzz, poor weather conditions, and sparse attendance, despite FIFA's efforts to generate excitement. According to Ifreke Inyang of Daily Post, these factors are hindering the success of the ongoing tournament.
  • Kick-off times at noon and 3 pm local time forced players to battle scorching summer heat.
  • Stadium attendance has been notably low for many matches, falling significantly below capacity.
  • Early favourites like Real Madrid, Inter Milan, PSG, and Chelsea have suffered surprising draws or defeats.
  • A football analyst suggests issues with host location, timing, visa difficulties, and public voting system.
