ROThe atmosphere before the England vs Mexico match in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers became highly tense as Mexican fans attempted to disrupt the preparation of the English team. Thousands of Mexican supporters, accompanied by musicians, set off fireworks and created loud noise outside the hotel where the English delegation was staying, aiming to prevent the players from getting adequate rest. This tactic is not new for Mexican fans, who used a similar strategy before their 2-0 victory against Ecuador in the quarterfinals.

The English Football Association also increased security around the hotel, deploying additional agents to prevent any incidents.
