Mexico’s goal celebration against Germany quite literally caused a minor earthquake as fans’ wild reaction sparked seismic activity in the nation’s capital.<\/p>\n
Mexican authorities reported the reading was recorded at the exact time Mexico took the lead in their Group F World Cup opening match against Die Mannschaft.<\/p>\n
Germany were the strong favourites going into the clash, but it was Mexico who started much the brighter side at the Luzhniki Stadium.<\/p>\n
PSV winger Hirving Lozano found the back of the net with a spectacular effort ten minutes before the break, sparking wild scenes both inside the packed ground, and back in Mexico.<\/p>\n
Mexico went on to win the game, so we can only imagine how wild the celebrations will be late into the night in both Russia and South America.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But it was the reaction immediately after Lozano’s goal that caused an “artificial” earthquake, as SIMMSA – the body monitoring and analysing seismic activity in Mexico – so brilliantly put it.<\/p>\n
SIMMSA tweeted: “Earthquake detected in Mexico City during the goal by the national team in the World Cup.”<\/p>\n
