FIFA is reviewing the situation in Mexico for the 2026 World Cup following the recent violence in the state of Jalisco. Uncertainty is particularly focused on Guadalajara, one of the three Mexican venues for the tournament, and on the viability of the Akron Stadium<\/a> to host the scheduled matches.<\/p>\n

The riots were sparked after the death of Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, alias “El Mencho”, leader of the Jalisco Cartel – New Generation (CJNG), which forced authorities to activate a “code red” in the city. This scenario raised immediate questions about whether Guadalajara could maintain its role in the 2026 World Cup. <\/p>\n

According to Alejandro Orva\u00f1anos, a journalist for Claro Sports, FIFA is analyzing whether Guadalajara will continue to host the 2026 World Cup playoff games scheduled for March 26.<\/p>\n

Although no specific details or an official position confirming changes have been given so far, the issue is already under review by world soccer’s highest governing body.<\/p>\n

Orva\u00f1anos explained that the concern revolves around the matches corresponding to key A of the playoffs, which was assigned to Guadalajara.<\/p>\n

Teams from Oceania, CONCACAF and Africa will compete for one of the last available tickets to the 2026 World Cup.<\/p>\n

This makes the city a strategic point within the tournament structure.<\/p>\n

In light of recent events, FIFA requested official internal reports to assess the impact of the security situation in Mexico for the 2026 World Cup.<\/p>\n

The objective is to closely monitor events, especially in Guadalajara.<\/p>\n

And to determine whether optimal conditions exist to ensure the safe conduct of the meetings.<\/p>\n

Mexico has already sent to FIFA headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland, documents compiling the events that took place between February 22 and early Monday morning.<\/p>\n

Including information on the country’s three World Cup venues.<\/p>\n

Based on these reports, soccer’s governing body will make decisions or implement preventive measures if deemed necessary.<\/p>\n
