In their quest for victory, Mexican fans gathered overnight outside the Ecuadorian players' hotel, intent on disturbing their rest ahead of the knockout stage match. Mexico is set to face Ecuador in the Round of 16 late Tuesday into Wednesday (Dutch time), and the fans of the host nation made their presence felt. Chanting, singing, and honking car horns, they attempted to create a raucous atmosphere to unsettle the opposing team. Whether this tactic proves effective remains to be seen after the match.
