New York will be hit by ”severe thunderstorms,” with ”destructive winds” capable of ”toppling trees and power lines” just hours before the 2026 World Cup final, which will be held at MetLife Stadium and will feature Argentina and Spain. The warning comes from New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who wrote on ‘X’ that ”tomorrow New York City will be hit by severe thunderstorms. Destructive winds are expected, strong enough to topple trees and power lines, and heavy rains that could cause sudden flooding”.

Mamdani warned that ”these storms can develop with little warning” and urges to ”take immediate shelter indoors if a thunderstorm breaks out”. The mayor also urges to ”check on your neighbors, especially New Yorkers living in basement apartments. The city is preparing and every New Yorker should do the same.” And on the eve of the match, FIFA President Gianni Infantino also speaks: “”This final is a gift from the gods of football. We have Messi, Lamine Yamal, and many other exceptional players. It is something incredible”.
Infantino considers Spain and Argentina the two national teams that most deserved to reach the final act of the tournament, not only for the final reached but also for the journey made in what he calls a particularly challenging edition. “They are the two best teams. They deserved to be in the final and played exceptionally,” he explains in an interview with Marca. “It was not easy to get here. There were 48 teams, extraordinary matches, and a very difficult World Cup”
