Whether it was because the young goalkeeper plays for Santos Laguna, the home team at the TSM stadium, or because of the charisma of goalkeeper Carlos Acevedo, the fans connected very well with the goalkeeper and changed the famous homophobic shout for a more meaningful one.

During the first minutes of the match between Mexico and Suriname, there were shouts of support for Carlos Acevedo, as well as the famous "goalkeeper" cheer, and his last name was chanted in the stadium. Something that Guillermo Ochoa has not achieved at the Azteca stadium.
