England Land in Mexico City to a Wall of Boos

The England squad's arrival in Mexico City was met with a hostile reception from local fans ahead of their last-16 clash.

England's World Cup squad touched down in Mexico City and were greeted not with cheers but with a chorus of boos, according to Reuters.

The hostile welcome sets a fiery backdrop for the nations' upcoming Round of 16 encounter, with Mexican fans making clear where their loyalties lie long before a ball is kicked.

England will need to block out the noise when they face the hosts in what promises to be one of the most atmospheric games of the tournament.
