Last night, Mexico lost to Honduras at the General Francisco Morazán Stadium, which triggered an aggression against Javier Aguirre. The Mexican Football Federation has requested a sanction in accordance with the regulations. For some time, a hostile atmosphere from Honduran fans has been expected whenever the Mexican national team visits them.
The match ended in a tense atmosphere, and now the return leg will be played at home on November 19. Honduras could face sanctions according to the CONCACAF Nations League rules for the lack of security, with fines ranging from USD 3,000 to USD 10,000 depending on the severity of the situation.
Although CONCACAF and the Honduran Federation have not yet commented on the aggression from fans, it is expected that they will take measures to ensure the safety of players and officials in the competition. Regarding Javier Aguirre, a Honduran fan captured the moment when the coach provoked the fans, which led to an aggressive response.
According to the regulations, Aguirre could be warned, suspended for up to 2 months, and even fined for failing to comply with Fair Play after insulting. The Mexican National Team finds itself in a compromised position after the 2-0 defeat in San Pedro Sula in the first leg. To advance to the semifinals, Mexico needs to overcome a three-goal deficit, as a 2-2 aggregate tie would take the match to extra time, considering the away goal rule in the competition.
