In Illinois, USA, an unexpected collapse of a football field occurred, forming a sinkhole of approximately 30 meters in diameter.
Local media note that the cause of this incident could be the collapse of a local mine located beneath the stadium.
There were no people on the field at the time of the collapse, but the field covering and the lighting pole fell into the sinkhole.
Recall that the USA, along with Canada and Mexico, will host the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Stadiums in cities like New York, Houston, Dallas, Los Angeles, Seattle, and others will be used for the tournament. The competition is scheduled from June 11 to July 19, with the FIFA 2026 final taking place at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
