Thousands of people took to the El Angel de la Independencia Monument to celebrate Mexico’s victory over South Korea on Saturday, but a rare combination had Mexico City’s LGBT Pride Parade happening at the same time in a larger than usual turnout. Mexico faced South Korea in a tough match that was seen a must win for months, especially since most expected Mexico to lose their opener against Germany.
Mexico’s victory rose Mexicans’ spirit and plenty of fans were expected in El Angel de Independencia, with the big difference being that Mexico’s game was going to happen the same day Mexico City was having it’s LGBT Pride Parade.
