A few months before the start of the 2026 World Cup, a version published by journalist Oscar Balderas generated controversy by stating that Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, alias “El Mencho”, leader of the Jalisco Cartel – New Generation (CJNG), had allegedly obtained tickets for matches in Guadalajara.<\/p>\n

According to the column titled “El Mencho has tickets for the World Cup,” published on December 5, 2025, a source cited by the author stated that the drug lord had obtained tickets for matches scheduled to take place at the Akron Stadium, one of the Mexican venues for the tournament that will be jointly organized by Mexico, the United States and Canada starting on June 11, 2026. It is important to emphasize that this information comes from an opinion column based on the journalist’s sources and not from an official communiqu\u00e9 from FIFA<\/a> or Mexican or U.S. authorities. <\/p>\n

What does the published version say?<\/h2>\n

According to the press report, the tickets were allegedly purchased with the presumed intention of giving them as gifts to political and business allies.<\/p>\n

The publication also states that, in this context, Mexican authorities have reportedly asked US counterparts to avoid taking action against the criminal leader during 2026.<\/p>\n

Under the argument that a high-impact operation could generate violence in World Cup venues.<\/p>\n

So far, there is no official public confirmation to support these claims.<\/p>\n

Following the death of El Mencho on February 22, 2026, the issue of tickets was once again circulated in the media and social networks, fueling the debate about security at the 2026 World Cup.<\/p>\n

As well as the possible interference of organized crime in high-profile international events.<\/p>\n

The 2026 World Cup will be the largest in FIFA’s history, with matches in multiple cities in the United States, Mexico and Canada.<\/p>\n

For millions of Latinos in the U.S., the tournament represents a historic opportunity to experience the World Cup without leaving the country.<\/p>\n

Confirmed Mexican venues include Mexico City (Azteca Stadium) and Guadalajara (Akron Stadium), among others.<\/p>\n

In the United States, several cities with large Hispanic populations will host meetings.<\/p>\n

When dealing with any security-related release, it is key to distinguish between confirmed information and publications based on journalistic sources.<\/p>\n

The authorities of the three host countries have reiterated that special internationally coordinated security operations will be implemented.<\/p>\n
