Celebrations in Mexico City turned tragic when a stampede left two people dead following the national team’s historic 2-0 World Cup victory over Ecuador. Millions had taken to the streets to mark Mexico’s first knockout-round win since 1986, with a massive crowd converging around the capital’s Angel of Independence Monument. As the gathering grew uncontrollable, a fatal crush occurred, claiming the lives of a 19-year-old and a 44-year-old. While local media reports suggest the death toll may have risen to three, officials have currently only confirmed two fatalities from the incident.
