A minor earthquake in Mexico City is believed to have been caused by football fans celebrating yesterday’s winning goal against Germany in yesterday’s World Cup match.
Seismic monitoring agency Simmsa said at least two sensors detected the quake in the city at 11:32 local time – after Mexico fans celebrated footballer Hirving Lozano scoring the winning goal, according to Sky News.
Simmsa said: "The earthquake detected in Mexico City originated artificially.
"Possibly by massive jumps during the goal….of Mexico in the World Cup."
Thousands of fans had gathered to watch the match on a big TV screen in the central Zocalo square in the capital.
