Mexico City’s government is evaluating alcohol restrictions for Mexico’s match against Czechia on June 24 following massive celebrations after the win over South Korea.
César Cravioto, Secretary of Government, announced talks with bar, restaurant and store owners to prevent alcohol sales or removal during celebrations. More than 400,000 people celebrated on Paseo de la Reforma and 40 tons of trash were collected.
At least five people were detained for fights. Cravioto said authorities will sensitize commercial establishments to curb excessive alcohol consumption.
The match against Czechia kicks off at 19:00 at Estadio Ciudad de México. Light rail access will be restricted and circulation limited in nearby areas.
