MEXICO CITY, Mexico (AFP)—Thousands of demonstrators blocked an avenue leading to Mexico City’s Azteca Stadium on Tuesday, just days before the 2026 World Cup kicks off at the venue, an AFP journalist observed.
The protest, led by a breakaway group of the CNTE teachers union, follows a week of chaotic demonstrations in the Mexican capital.
The stadium will host the tournament opener pitting Mexico against South Africa on Thursday.
