Mexico fans will be barred from attending their country's first two home 2022 World Cup qualifiers after making homophobic chants during two Olympic qualifying games in March, FIFA said in a statement on Friday.
Mexico's games against Jamaica on Sept. 2 and Canada on Oct. 7 in the final round of CONCACAF World Cup qualifying will be played in empty stadiums as a result of the sanctions.

Sounds like measures that would be taken when the players are children, not grown men.

If only this would persuade leftists in the US to agree on the border wall.

I confess I don’t understand the rabid enthusiasm for the game. I went to a mall in Costa Rica and there were four or five sets on showing different soccer games and each had large audiences. And one time while at daughter-in-law’s house the Costa Rica team scored a goal and the whole neighborhood erupted in cheers.
Won’t this anger the fans and make them hate homos even more?
Worst thing about playing soccer is the moment you have to admit to your mother that your gay
I’m a Mexico fan now.
