🎥 No use hiding: England stars welcomed in MexicoOn the night from Sunday to Monday, Mexico and England will face off at the legendary Azteca Stadium for a place in the World Cup round of 16. It really doesn’t get more football heritage than that!
>The Three Lions will not only be up against eleven in-form Mexicans and almost 90,000 spectators, but rather an entire country.
>In recent days and weeks, the supporters of "El Tri" have stopped at truly nothing to help their team. On the night before the round-of-32 match, they showed up outside Ecuador’s hotel and made a huge amount of noise.
The English Football Association (FA) feared a similar fate ahead of the round-of-16 match. For that reason, the federation was notably secretive about its choice of accommodation. Rumors even circulated on social media that the FA had booked a total of 15 hotels to confuse potential troublemakers.
>This story is hard to verify. What is already clear, however, is this: the title contender’s game of hide-and-seek was truly unsuccessful. As soon as they arrived, Harry Kane, Jude Bellingham and Co. were "welcomed" by a loud Mexican crowd.
It is almost inevitable to assume that this group will stop by the English team’s hotel once again on the night before the match — or at least try to. Perhaps the local security forces will step in as well.
