As you all know, Mexico and Korea have been close ever since that fateful match at the 2018 FIFA World Cup. They needed Germany to lose to advance to the Round of 16 and our Taegeuk Warriors delivered, with that historic 2-0 victory over the reigning World Cup champs in Kazan. So you knew when Korea and Mexico scheduled a friendly this November, we had to link up with the Mexican supporters at Biergarten LA to watch the match together (from a safe social distance of course).
@FCFCpod, a Los Angeles Culture podcast, covered the Tigers Supporters Group (TSG) as they watched the Mexico v Republic of Korea friendly this past Saturday.
Here are some of the sights and sounds from the Mexican and Korean Fans on site.
