Mexico supporters gathered outside Ecuador’s team hotel and repeatedly blasted horns late at night ahead of the countries’ World Cup match, according to Voice of Urdu. Ecuador team officials said the disruption affected players’ ability to rest and recover on the eve of the game.
The incident is drawing attention because teams typically follow strict recovery routines during major tournaments, and late-night noise near a team hotel can hinder preparation. Tournament organisers and local authorities also often monitor security and fan behaviour around official accommodations to reduce disruptions.
