It appears that Mexican fans were not interested in attending the team’s third place game of the CONCACAF Nations League tournament.
Earlier this week, Mexico fell to 3-0 to the United States in a game filled with Mexican fans in the stands.
Way too many Mexico fans here

That game would end with Mexican fans throwing stuff on the field and making “discriminatory chants.”
Can confirm. On and off field. Mexico fans greatly outnumbered US and they lost by a lot. Crowd chanted slur and game had to be stopped. pic.twitter.com/swlesAJFmf
