Homophobic chants by pro-Mexican fans at the Nations League Final in AT&T Stadium prompted play to be suspended twice, leading to condemnation from the Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football (CONCACAF) and FIFA. Security staff ejected a significant number of fans, and the incident has sparked disappointment and calls for positive support from organizations and officials. The issue of discriminatory chanting at soccer matches, particularly involving the U.S. and Mexico, continues to be a concern, with AT&T Stadium set to host World Cup matches in 2026.
