Stars face injuries and boredom during break

The first international break of the 2026-2027 season is nearing its end, having lasted three weeks with the aim of enhancing player safety and reducing travel burdens, instead of the two weeks originally decided by FIFA. Despite the benefits for players and smaller competitions, injuries among top national team players such as Haaland and Mbappé have increased. Union officials have expressed concern over the rising fixture congestion, while some coaches and fans have voiced dissatisfaction due to limited activity and the worsening injury situation. Experiences from this season show the benefits of scheduling matches in lower divisions and the women's league, but a comprehensive assessment of the break’s success in terms of injuries and performance remains necessary.
