Mexico fans and players belted out their anthem gloriously before World Cup debut vs. Germany

Mexico has the range.

Mexico is taking on Germany in their first match of the 2018 World Cup on Sunday and, moments before the game began, got to sing along with their national anthem.

Y’all: They sang so loud. It was incredible.

Watch:

That was just as loud as the Russian fans sang their national anthem before the first game of the tournament ... and this tournament is being played in Russia. You’d think Russia would have an advantage in the “fans here to sing our anthem” category, but apparently not.

Mexico does have a ton of fans at this World Cup, but looking in the crowd, it wasn’t like it was a majority of Mexico fans at Mexico vs. Germany. It was just the fans that were there were singing at the top of their lungs.
