After Mexico's 2-1 victory in the football final, many of the yellow-clad Brazilians filed out somberly, leaving a sea of people in green, many wearing silly fake mustaches and oversized hats.
"It's representative of our country," said Jose Maria Rosales, 31, who flew in from Hermosillo, Mexico, to see the match.
Sitting nearby — also in mustache and sombrero — was Richard Webster, 32, who didn't have to travel so far. He's from London, and he has never even been to Mexico. "I was supporting team GB until they were knocked out," he says. "Then I went down to the fancy dress shop and got myself these."
