Manchester City’s Pre-Season Clash with Barcelona Postponed Indefinitely Due to Stormy Weather in Orlando

It looks like Manchester City’s much-anticipated pre-season friendly against Barcelona in Orlando has hit a snag.

Originally scheduled to kick off at midnight, the match has been postponed due to a severe thunderstorm moving through the area.

The storm has caused an unexpected delay, leaving fans and teams alike in limbo.

Pep Guardiola was set to face off against his former team, but now both sides are waiting for the weather to clear before they can start.

The new kick-off time is still uncertain as they monitor the conditions.

Inside the Camping World Stadium, fans who arrived early were treated to pre-match activities before the delay was announced. As rain began to pour, the stadium’s screens urged supporters to take cover in sheltered areas.

The message on the screens read: “Due to inclement weather, the event has been temporarily delayed.

Please seek shelter under covered concourse areas until further notice.”

Official Statement

City’s official X account confirmed the situation, stating, “Tonight’s match has been delayed due to an incoming storm in Orlando. The length of the delay will be confirmed in due course.”
