FIFA is looking at the possibility of starting the game earlier than the scheduled 6:00 p.m. at the Azteca Stadium, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press.
The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because no final decision has been made.
Among the concerns for FIFA is the possible disruption caused by flooding.
