The noise is repeated, the stands are empty; the Benfica-Auckland City match is interrupted due to rain

Another Club World Cup match has been abandoned due to bad weather, as Benfica and Auckland City were unable to complete their match in Orlando.

The Portuguese team was leading 1-0 thanks to a penalty converted by Angel Di Maria when the match was abandoned in the first half due to rain. It was the fourth match to be abandoned or postponed in this tournament.

On Tuesday, Mamelodi Sundowns' match against Ulsan HD was suspended just before kick-off for more than an hour due to a weather alert.

Salzburg's match against Paçoça was delayed 97 minutes into the second half due to a storm on Wednesday. On Thursday, Palmeiras' match against Al Ahli was interrupted for almost 45 minutes into the second half due to a nearby storm.

Common public safety protocols in the US mandate that outdoor sporting events be suspended for at least 30 minutes when lightning is seen or thunder is heard.
