Mexico supporters gathered near England's hotel in Mexico City the night before the teams' last-16 World Cup match and set off fireworks while playing music. Police in riot gear formed a barrier around the hotel and directed the group farther away. Early reports from the England camp indicated the noise had minimal impact on the players.
Background to the Security Measures Ecuador lodged a noise complaint with FIFA after fans used loudspeakers, motorbikes and horns outside their hotel the previous week. The same security arrangements were in place when England left for training on Saturday and encountered both cheers and jeers from bystanders.
" The match is scheduled for Sunday evening local time at Mexico City's Azteca Stadium.
