In her video, content creator Aisha Jones (@aishajonesb) warned Mexicans against eating Worcestershire sauce.
“Listen to me, and listen carefully. From now until Sunday, your chips can have Valentina or Maggi, but don’t even think about using Worcestershire sauce.”
She said this while preparing snacks and holding up a bottle of the sauce.
Aisha added:
“Throw the Worcestershire sauce away because it’s no longer ‘What if?’ It’s ‘Yes, yes, yes.’ England is going to taste Mexico’s national chili.”

England Reportedly Delays Arrival in Mexico City Over Espionage Concerns
England’s national team reportedly decided to postpone its arrival in Mexico City before facing El Tri, citing concerns about possible espionage.
According to Daily Sport and reports confirmed by the English Football Association, the coaching staff chose to remain longer in Atlanta and fly to Mexico only 48 hours before kickoff, instead of arriving several days in advance as other European teams had done.
The main concern was the possibility that representatives of the Mexican Football Federation or local fans could obtain information about England’s lineup, tactics, or training routines.
England manager Thomas Tuchel celebrated with his players after defeating Congo in the Round of 32 of the World Cup on Wednesday, July 1, 2026, in Atlanta.
The English squad reportedly feared that any information leak could provide Mexico with a competitive advantage in the Round of 16 match. As a result, the team tightened security measures and restricted access to tactical training sessions and team activities.
The decision prompted discussion in both the British and Mexican media. Reports indicated that England’s logistics staff thoroughly inspected communication devices and surveillance systems at both the team hotel and Estadio Ciudad de México to prevent any potential leak of sensitive information.
