Thus the attendance at the World Cup festivals grew each game; the influx went from 420 thousand fans to more than a million people

The article discusses the fluctuation in public attendance during Mexico's World Cup matches, particularly focusing on the national team's elimination by England in the round of 16. Initially, fan turnout grew significantly as Mexico advanced through the tournament, with large crowds gathering at designated viewing areas like the Zócalo, Paseo de la Reforma, and various festivals across the city. The first match saw around 420,000 attendees, while subsequent games saw increasing numbers, peaking at over 1.4 million people celebrating Mexico’s victory against the Czech Republic. However, after the loss to England, the crowd dispersed without the usual celebrations. The head of the City Government, Clara Brugada, reported these figures, highlighting the unprecedented scale of public gatherings.
