While snow and cold are more or less a guarantee for the FIFA World Cup qualifier between Canada and Mexico on November 16, it could also be the coldest soccer match ever. all the time. We hope that’s not the case (for fans and gamers alike) but hey, it would be a bit of a weird story to descend on the city. Here’s the scoop.
From what we could find online, two different professional soccer games are vying for the top spot. A 2018 The CONCACAF game between Colorado and Toronto, which took place in Commerce City, Colorado, recorded a freezing temperature of -16° Celsius. Meanwhile, a game in Norway in 2010 clocked in at -14° Celsius, making it the coldest on the European side.

Well, Edmonton just might take the crown. The stream provide for the match between Canada and Mexico hovers around -8°, but could “feel” as low as -16° at the end of the match. So if things go wrong, Edmonton could well host the coldest soccer game ever. Rather appropriate for November in Canada, don’t you think?
Of course, we don’t think the cold forecast will be much of a deterrent to fans. Just lay down, keep a hot drink handy and enjoy an unforgettable football game.
