In case you haven't already noticed, you can hardly go anywhere in Mexico City without being aware that the city is one of the hosts of the World Cup.
Here are some more miscellaneous photos...
These two giant figures of soccer players are on the plaza by the Monument to Motherhood. One is sponsored by GNP, an insurance company, and the other is sponsored by Uber.
At the intersection of Paseo de la Reforma and Insurgentes Avenue there is a light display, although I have not been by here at night to see it lit up.
Dr. Simi, the beloved mascot of the drug store chain, Farmacias Similares, is portrayed on this mural as a "fútbol" hero.
And here is the dear doctor, posing in his soccer jersey.
In the middle of the Glorieta de Insurgentes is this giant inflatable soccer ball which was created by seven prisoners at the Penitentiary Center. It is decorated with the image of Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent god of pre-Hispanic Mexico.
