Mexico's Sheinbaum urges US to avoid immigration action at LA soccer game

- Sheinbaum expressed confidence that no immigration raids would occur during the soccer match and emphasized a consulate-led initiative offering detained Mexicans guidance and ongoing support.
- The president's appeal aims to protect fans amidst heightened immigration enforcement while the Mexican team continues its participation in the Gold Cup tournament.
