Tornado Warning Halts England’s World Cup Training in Kansas City

Tornado Warning Halts England’s World Cup Training in Kansas City

England’s squad had just completed a sunny session at Sporting Kansas City’s training grounds when severe weather swept in. Emergency alerts warned of destructive winds up to 80mph and urged everyone to seek shelter on the lowest floor away from windows. Players and staff followed instructions at their nearby hotel and training base. A tornado watch remained in effect into the night, and hotel staff said guests are routinely told to shelter in interior bathrooms when sirens sound. Despite the scare, preparations under Thomas Tuchel continue as England chase their first major title since 1966.
