Three dead as over million celebrate Mexico's World Cup win

More than one million people gathered in Mexico City on Tuesday to celebrate the national team’s victory over Ecuador, according to estimates from city officials and organizers. The mass rally, which unfolded across major avenues and public squares, was sparked by the win in a World Cup qualifying match that secured Mexico’s position in the next round of the tournament.

Authorities reported that the demonstration remained largely peaceful, with police deploying additional units to manage traffic and ensure public safety. Organizers highlighted the turnout as a testament to the country’s enthusiasm for football, while municipal leaders emphasized the importance of orderly conduct as the celebrations continued into the evening.
