In the early morning of June 22, the group stage of the Club World Cup continued. In Group F, Dortmund narrowly defeated African team Mamelodi 4-3 Sunset. Due to the hot weather, Dortmund's substitute was tested unprecedentedly off the court.

This Club World Cup was held in the United States. The hot weather and abnormal high temperatures made the players miserable. Before this game, Dortmund coach Kovac once complained in an interview: "Due to the high temperature, the pace of the game cannot be improved. Overheating of the body will not only affect the players, but the audience's impression will also decline."

It is reported that the local temperature today is at least 32 degrees, while the temperature in the stadium reaches 36-38 degrees. Because the Sun is too strong, a very rare scene happened on Dortmund's bench: the substitute players have put up umbrellas to block the sun. The coaching team and staff almost all wore hats, which allowed them to avoid being exposed to the sun. After a while, the Dortmund players on the bench couldn't stand the scorching sun, even though they were watching the game with umbrellas. Finally, they applied to the coach to go back to the locker room to watch the game.

Kovac himself could not bear it anymore, so he immediately agreed to the players' application and asked them all to go back to the locker room. In the cool locker room, Dortmund players track the stadium dynamics through TV broadcasts, and their condition looks much more comfortable.

Dotter official complained about the high temperature of the Club World Cup on social media: "Our substitutes can only watch the game in the locker room. This is to avoid being exposed to the sun. This is an unprecedented scene, but we have to do it."
