Before his death in a military operation in Jalisco, Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, known as "El Mencho" and identified by authorities as the leader of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), had reportedly secured tickets to several 2026 FIFA World Cup matches in Guadalajara.
According to a column by journalist Óscar Balderas published in Milenio back on December 5, a high-level source said Oseguera had obtained tickets for four matches scheduled at Estadio Akron in Guadalajara.
