England's physiotherapist Steve Kemp prepares team for World Cup challenge

Steve Kemp, the lead physiotherapist for the England football team, is crucial in their World Cup campaign as they prepare for an upcoming match against Mexico at the Azteca Stadium. Kemp brings over 20 years of experience and previously worked with Wolverhampton Wanderers. He has treated various players with different injuries, adapting to their needs to keep them fit. The match will present challenges due to the stadium's high altitude of 7,220 feet, which may impact player performance and recovery. Dr. Matthew Cook from the University of Worcester notes the importance of acclimatization and strategies like pacing for the team's performance under these conditions.
