新华社北京7月17日电（记者焦子琦）2026美加墨世界杯决赛将于当地时间7月19日在美国新泽西体育场打响。    R. Madhavan has finally addressed the wave of polarising reactions surrounding Dhurandhar, and his response is calm, confident and rooted in experience. As debates intensify online over the film’s violence and narrative choices, the actor says he saw the backlash coming long before release. This is because he has lived through similar storms in the past.     In a conversation with Puja Talwar, Madhavan drew clear parallels between the response to Dhurandhar and the reactions to two of his biggest films, Rang De Basanti and 3 Idiots. Both titles are now considered modern classics, but Madhavan reminded fans that they also faced scepticism, doubts and even poor early ratings. “From the beginning, I knew this was going to impact society. People will give it bad ratings at first,” he said. “The people who gave two ratings have become irrelevant. We are still in the industry. You’re just missing the point, it’s time to evolve.”                                                                 View this post on Instagram          A post shared by Jio Studios (@officialjiostudios)               The actor recalled how Rang De Basanti was written off before it even hit theatres, with distributors backing out and critics predicting failure. For him, Dhurandhar simply follows a familiar pattern: films that challenge, provoke or diverge from expectations often face resistance before being embraced. “When this happened with Dhurandhar, I thought, been there, done that,” Madhavan added, unfazed by early negativity.     He was especially critical of reviewers and online commentators who declare films “disasters” within hours of release. Madhavan believes such snap judgments rarely account for context, intention or storytelling depth. “As actors, we dream of these situations..when people say it’s stupid, nothing will happen… and then it blows up. You haven’t seen the end yet,” he said, expressing faith that the film’s longevity will silence its detractors.                                                                 View this post on Instagram          A post shared by R.

The film crossed ₹200 crore domestically in its first week and surpassed ₹300 crore worldwide shortly after, cementing itself as one of the year’s biggest commercial successes. R Madhavan is joined by a stellar cast complete with the lead Ranveer Singh, Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, Arjun Rampal and debutant Sara Arjun.     Also Read: R Madhavan Says His Role Is Bigger in Dhurandhar 2 As He Mentors Ranveer Singh’s Spy Hero。国际足联此前宣布，将在本场比赛中场休息设置一场表演。此举或将大幅延长中场休息时间，打破《足球竞赛规则》中的相关规定。图片来自国际足联官网。这将是世界杯历史上的首次中场表演。国际足联预告称，本场演出时长为11分钟，麦当娜、夏奇拉、贾斯汀·比伯等艺人将登台亮相，“把足球史上最重要的比赛变成前所未有的庆典”。考虑到演出可能需要搭建和拆除舞台，英国广播公司（BBC）等多家媒体预测本场决赛中场休息的实际时长将达到20-30分钟。

二 | 而现行《足球竞赛规则》第7.2条规定，球员有权在半场时休息，但不得超过15分钟。事实上，20-30分钟的预测并非凭空而来。同样在新泽西体育场举行的2025年世俱杯决赛也设置了中场表演，导致中场休息实际时长达到了约25分钟。

三 | 2024年美洲杯决赛中场休息同样因为表演而延长到了25分钟左右。2025年7月13日，在美国新泽西州进行的2025年国际足联俱乐部世界杯（世俱杯）决赛中，英格兰切尔西队3比0战胜法国巴黎圣日耳曼队，夺得冠军。新华社记者 黄宗治 摄值得一提的是，国际足球协会理事会曾在2021年11月否决了将中场休息从15分钟延长至25分钟的提案，理由是“多位成员表达了担忧，尤其考虑到长时间不活跃可能对球员福利和安全产生负面影响”。

四 | 而如今，国际足联却屡次在国际赛事中主动引入“中场秀”。本届世界杯开赛以来，从规则到仪式，处处可见美式体育的影子。最直观的改变是强制补水暂停。不少球迷调侃说，补水暂停将90分钟的足球比赛切割成类似篮球比赛的四节制。7月5日，英格兰队主教练图赫尔（上中）在补水时间指导球员。新华社记者 李木子 摄而就在决赛前夕，国际足联又宣布冠军球队成员除了奖牌之外，还将获颁定制冠军戒指一枚。

五 | 国际足联在官方公告中明确表示，这是“将美国标志性的体育传统带给全球足球界”。

六 | 这一系列操作，让人愈发感受到美式职业体育的商业逻辑对世界杯的渗透。前国际足联主席布拉特在社交媒体上发文称“世界杯正在变成‘超级碗’的翻版”，并质问国际足联“将走向何方”。针对各界的质疑，本次表演策划方负责人迈克尔·吉岑回应称，国际足联延长中场休息时间是“正确的”，批评者们“没有抓住重点”。

七 | “足球有自己的节奏和规则，这当然很重要，但世界杯并不是‘大多数时候’。”吉岑说，“面对单项体育赛事能吸引的最庞大的观众数，把它当做一场普通的周末比赛才有问题。”7月14日，国际足联主席因凡蒂诺（后排中）在看台上。新华社记者 黄宗治 摄不过，这一安排已经造成了现实上的困难。

八 | 英国《卫报》报道称部分转播商正为可能延长的中场休息而发愁，他们向国际足联询问中场休息的实际时长，但没有得到回应。他们因此无法安排广告时间，无法出售广告位，这对于商业广播公司来说是巨大的问题。另据多家英国媒体报道，BBC已经决定不转播中场表演，而是将和以往一样，在中场时间由嘉宾对上半场比赛进行分析。

九 | 目前，国际足联仍未公布决赛中场休息的具体方案和时长。参赛双方也未对此发表意见。
