According to Sport, the official notification given to both Real Madrid and Barcelona is that they must wait 30 minutes after the end of any lightning before resuming the match to ensure there are no weather issues.
The report states that there is still thunderstorm activity over East Rutherford, where MetLife Stadium is located, although it is on the edge of the storm. Despite the players’ desire to continue the game, the rain is very heavy, making personal safety difficult to guarantee and causing significant waterlogging on the pitch.
The screens at the stadium have displayed a message indicating that the match will resume immediately once conditions allow.
