Mexico fans chanted an anti-gay slur during their 3-0 victory over Czechia on Wednesday night, potentially leading to discipline from FIFA.
Background
This specific chant has caused stoppages in play during past matches and has led to fines for Mexico. Despite efforts by FIFA and the Mexican Football Federation to stop the chant, it continues to be used by fans.
The Mexican Football Federation has tried to address the issue by releasing videos calling the chant ‘discriminatory’ and urging fans not to use it. However, the chant remains a problem, and FIFA may need to take further action.
FIFA has a three-step procedure to respond to ‘discriminatory incidents,’ which includes stopping play until the chants stop, suspending the game if the chants continue, and abandoning the match if necessary.
