Canada vs Nigeria

At 22:13 CEST, in the 72nd minute, the match was interrupted due to a power outage of the stadium's floodlights. The match resumed at 22:24 CEST.[4] Though the elapsed time was initially counted in the match report, FIFA later amended the minutes of the match events to exclude the stoppage of play caused by the power outage.
