The World Cup tournament is now in the Round of 32. In this phase, if you lose, you’re out. (See How Does the World Cup Get from 48 Teams to One Winning Team?<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The night before the game, a group of Mexico fans gathered in front of the hotel where the Ecuador team was staying, and made a lot of racket from about midnight, for several hours, to keep the Ecuadorian players from sleeping. They used loudspeakers, horns, motorcycles, and even fireworks. It’s a Latin American soccer custom called a “serenata”. The Ecuadorian soccer federation lodged a complaint with FIFA, the international governing body of soccer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
