REACTING AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED

On November 15, 2024, after Mexico's national team lost 2-0 to Honduras in the first leg of the CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinals, coach Javier Aguirre was struck on the head by a beer can thrown from the stands at Estadio General Francisco Morazán in San Pedro Sula. The impact caused a bleeding wound on his head.

Despite the injury, Aguirre downplayed the incident in his subsequent statements, saying, "It's not even worth mentioning because it's football, and I'm not one to complain." However, the Mexican Football Federation condemned the attack and urged CONCACAF to take action.

In response, CONCACAF sanctioned the Honduran team, requiring them to play their next home match behind closed doors and imposing a fine for failing to implement adequate security measures.
