Medical specialists have critically assessed the decision made by FIFA this week.

Football officials have decided to prohibit the entry of small water bottles into the arenas during the World Cup.

According to FIFA, this aims to protect players from objects thrown from the stands as much as possible.

Nevertheless, medical professionals are shaking their heads.

As representatives stated to the English media, extremely hot weather is expected during the World Cup, and with limited options for refreshment, spectators may face the risk of heatstroke.
