Police Guard England's World Cup Hotel

Riot police with bulletproof vests are guarding England's team hotel ahead of their World Cup round of 16 match against Mexico, following a hostile reception from Mexican fans.

England's team hotel is under heavy protection with over 100 officers in bulletproof vests stationed outside after the squad received a hostile welcome to Mexico City. The team had hoped to keep their hotel location secret, but it was revealed, leading to hundreds of Mexican fans booing and cheering for Mexico when the team bus arrived.

Mexican authorities have increased security measures after four people died in celebrations following Ecuador's match earlier in the week. The city has doubled security personnel and reduced capacity for fans watching the match on public screens. mchezo.life
