Remove the quote attribution to Marcelo Bielsa or clarify the context and source of the statement if it exists in a different context. However, based on current information, it appears to be an error. Clarify the precise regulations for hydration breaks in the most recent World Cup relevant to the discussion (e.g., 2022) or rephrase to 'FIFA has introduced cooling breaks in World Cups held in hot temperatures, which some critics argue also provide broadcasters with additional advertising opportunities.' Remove this sentence as it appears to be entirely unsubstantiated and falsely attributed.
