On July 5th, singer Marco Antonio Solís posted a photo of himself inside the Basilica of Guadalupe in front of an image of the Virgin, accompanied by a Mexican flag.
“What if it happens? Today more than ever, we entrust ourselves to you, Virgin. Especially to @miseleccionmx,” he wrote, alluding directly to the Mexican National Team, which faces England this afternoon in the round of 16 of the 2026 World Cup in Mexico City.
Marco Antonio Solís’s message has been circulating on social media since the early hours of Sunday. The singer, known as a fan of Mexican soccer, invoked the tradition of asking for the intercession of the Virgin of Guadalupe in key moments for the country. “Today more than ever,” he emphasized in the text, along with a praying hands emoji, the national flag, and a heart in green, white, and red.
The image shows Solís in a solemn pose, his back to the camera, with the Mexican flag outstretched and the Virgin of Guadalupe in the background. The post has garnered thousands of reactions and comments from fans who share the hope of seeing El Tri advance to the next round.
