Efforts to end Mexico soccer fans' anti-gay chanting have failed, Glendale match shows

It happened again Sunday.

During a Copa America match at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, thousands of supporters of Mexico's national soccer team chanted a homophobic slur in Spanish during the final moments of a crucial game against Ecuador.

The chanting from the stands was so loud and persistent, announcements were made three separate times in Spanish and English over the stadium's PA system threatening to pause the game and possibly end it if the chanting didn't stop.
