England camp reports minimal disruption after late-night fan noise in Mexico City

England's preparations for their last-16 match against Mexico were reportedly not significantly disturbed after supporters made noise near the team hotel overnight. Police moved fans back from the area, and early indications from the England camp pointed to little impact on the players' rest.

The incident took place in Mexico City before the sides' meeting at the Azteca Stadium, with social media footage appearing to show fans chanting, playing music and setting off fireworks on a nearby street. Security around the hotel had already been tightened, with police preventing people from getting too close.

The episode follows a previous complaint by Ecuador to FIFA after fans disrupted their sleep during Mexico's earlier World Cup fixture. That context has put extra attention on how host-nation support is managed around team hotels.

England manager Thomas Tuchel has played down broader concerns about the atmosphere around his squad, describing the home support in generally positive terms. For England, the bigger question now is whether the off-pitch noise remains just a sideshow before a high-pressure knockout match.
