Brazil HubThe Brazil national team is gearing up to face the heat in the World Cup round of 16. The increase in hydration and reinforcement of skin care are among the guidelines of the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) to the players of the Brazil national team.
How the team is preparing
The CBF reported that it will not adopt new measures specifically for Sunday's match, which will be at 16h local time (17h in Brasília), but will maintain the procedures that are normally applied in games under high temperatures.
Ice vests and wet towels
Among the actions to mitigate the impacts of the heat are the provision, during game intervals, of “ice vests”, vests with ice pockets to cool the torso, and wet towels, for the neck and head.
