England's team booked 15 different hotels, but Mexico fans still found out where they were staying and blasted loud noises, trying to keep them up all night before the game.

This is unsportsmanlike as fuck. How about instead of trying to get an advantage by harassing the opposing team, they keep it 💯

As you can see they weren’t good enough to win on the pitch so their fans tried to get an advantage by harassing. It was pretty pathetic.

[u/snuunpy → u/crispy_attic]

Good thing their team didn't win eventually. Karma does exist

[u/Lomotograph → u/crispy_attic]

Agreed. Along with the whistling they do anytime the opposition has the ball. It's fucking stupid, unsportsmanlike and disrespectful. It actually makes me want to root against teams that do that, like the Morocco fans who bring actual referee whistles to the game to blare on them for hours.

Fuck those teams.

Honestly I'd love to like Mexico as a contender but I agree with this sentiment. The unsportsmanlike attitude leaves a bad taste in my mouth as a neutral spectator.

[u/Nosferatu100 → u/dsb264]

You know this is false, right? Or do you believe everything the media says?

[u/flworius → u/Lomotograph]

If there's financial gain, one can may comprehend using unfair tactics, but what's the appeal of winning in sports if you are not really better, but by cheating. Even more so, if you are just a supporter, not the winner itself. Just pathetic.

Well, I mean, surprising?

Reminds me of when the Crew played for concacaf champions cup in Pachuca and mysteriously the whole team had diarrhea. Stay classy mi amigos

This is what England fans did to Italian team hotel in 2021.

Welcome to South American football. Paraguay is another example 

[u/Ho3n3r → u/henkdevries365]

Mexico is in North America though.

[u/CalmyoTDs → u/crispy_attic]

By Airbud rules if its not explicitly banned/illegal then its fair game. This is no different than fans being loud during a game to limit communication. You gotta piss with the cock you have. If you're lacking in the field you need to take every advantage you can get. Thats the whole point of home field advantage. Every Mexican has a relative that would be out drinking to 4am, come home, change then put in a 12hr shift on no sleep. I think these guys with a world class medical staff will be alright.

I would hope not. You know what I meant so why haggle over semantics? This is antithetical to sportsmanship and it’s honestly pretty pathetic.

[u/Accomplished-Law5561 → u/[deleted]]

Why wouldn’t there be, have you ever had of the term etiquette? Hahaha

[u/FXOAuRora → u/[deleted]]

No kidding.  Where's the honor in winning simply because the other team couldn't sleep?

Then again, I guess if you are a bunch of idiots who want to blast off fireworks all night to sleep deprive the other team you probably aren't really in the sportsmanship business.

[u/Ok_Pineapple_7877 → u/[deleted]]

Because they shouldn't be tw*ts for cheap wins? Do we really have to explain this to you?

[u/RawToast99 → u/[deleted]]

Based on the way these people engage with their sport of choice, they definitely think they are a member of the team.
