In Mexico, football is a religion, so the city is plastered with billboards featuring the country's soccer stars.
And it feels like everyone is wearing soccer jerseys, including the baby Jesus at the Metropolitan Cathedral.
But the city is also tense because one of the country's teachers' unions has set up a protest camp just outside the main fan zone.
They, along with other protest groups, have warned they may try to march toward the legendary Estadio Azteca, where the opening match will take place.
In the month-long tournament, Mexico and Canada will host 26 matches.
Beginning tomorrow, the U.S.
will host 78 games.
Mexico will face off with South Africa for the opening match.
Edo Peralta, NPR News, Mexico City.
I think everyone's thinking the same thing.
They're looking at Venezuela, where the United States had indicted now former President Nicolás Maduro of drug trafficking.
And this January, American soldiers swooped into Caracas and they brought him to a jail in Brooklyn.
I spoke to Michael Bustamante, who studies Cuba at the University of Miami, and he says clearly the U.S.
has been ratcheting up pressure on the Cubans.
The U.S.
has enacted a de facto oil blockade.
They've announced new sanctions on basically the whole Cuban leadership.
And Bustamante says the thing the Trump administration was missing was a pretext for some kind of military action.
And this might be exactly that.
Videos posted on social media show Cubans banging on pots on the streets in Havana.
