MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Mexico fans have been advised by their government not to wear their colourful 'Lucha Libre' wrestling masks at World Cup matches in Qatar to comply with local rules.
Alfonso Zegbe of the country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs asked fans not to wear the masks at the World Cup, citing guidance from the tournament's organising committee, although organisers told Reuters there was no such policy in place.
"The latest update from the Organising Committee is that masks will not be allowed," Zegbe, the SRE's executive director of Strategy and Public Diplomacy, told ESPN. "Full face masks, such as the famous Mexican wrestling masks, would obviously have to be removed for security reasons heading into a stadium," the SC wrote in an emailed statement.
