Morelos Prosecutor’s Office investigates official for alleged millionaire mansion

The Mexican National Team was left out of the 2026 World Cup. Hours later, a message of support, not reproach, came from the Presidency.

Claudia Sheinbaum recognized the effort of the national team. The president highlighted the role of the team and the fans during the tournament.

“Sometimes you win and sometimes you learn; the important thing is to move forward and represent Mexico with pride,” he expressed.

The pronouncement occurred on July 6, from Nezahualcóyotl. Sheinbaum stressed that what was achieved by the new generation of soccer players will remain in the memory of Mexicans.

“To each and everyone, we show that Mexico is the best host in the world, with a happy and united people. Forever, let’s go, Mexico!!”

The defeat left sadness in the stands, but also recognition. The team fought until the end and restored the enthusiasm of millions of fans.

A country as headquarters

The 2026 World Cup also strengthened Mexico’s image as a host. Full stadiums and dedicated fans were the hallmark of the tournament.

Sheinbaum closed with a message of encouragement: “What was achieved by the young people of the National Team lives in the hearts of Mexicans forever.”

The fans do not give up

Javier arrived at the Plaza de la Constitución at 12:30 p.m. He was wearing a wrestler’s mask and a flag with the phrase: “What if?” Thus, it represented Mexican tradition and the spirit of those present.

The heavy rain did not stop the fans. They took out umbrellas and raincoats to cover themselves. Even the broadcast of the previous match between Brazil and Norway was interrupted for 15 minutes.

The capital authorities reported the total filling of the Zócalo at 3:00 p.m. Mobility was complicated, with attendees moving shoulder to shoulder, especially near the stands and toilets.

The game started until 7:00 p.m., but people did not lose their place or their enthusiasm. Those who did not manage to enter the Zócalo or the Ángel de la Independencia followed the meeting on the screens on Juárez Avenue.

The cheers grew louder with every minute. Bubble baths were common; many ended up with white hair or faces. In nearby streets, some people were consuming beer in cans despite the dry law imposed by the authorities.

Food establishments were packed, while other establishments remained empty. Cantinas on Donceles had the curtains down, but allowed access to fans.

President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo followed the match of the Mexican National Team against England from the Municipal Palace of Nezahualcóyotl. His visit was not on the public agenda. Minutes before the opening whistle, she arrived accompanied by the governor of the State of Mexico, Delfina Gómez Álvarez, to share the experience with hundreds of residents.

A match of intense emotions

Despite the rain and flooded streets, dozens of families gathered to support the Tricolor. Sheinbaum greeted the attendees and immersed himself in the atmosphere of the game. England struck first, and spirits fell. The president reflected the same concern as the crowd.

Mexico’s first goal restored hope. Sheinbaum stood up, applauded and chanted “Yes we can!” along with the fans. The expulsion of an English player generated optimism. Raúl Jiménez’s penalty brought Mexico closer to the scoreboard, which was 2-3. The result did not change anymore.

After the elimination, Sheinbaum sent a message of encouragement to the players and highlighted that Mexico left its mark as the venue for the World Cup.
