Vicente Fernández honored with an incredible tribute during a Mexican soccer match

Vicente Fernández fans wept together at a big soccer match in Mexico on Sunday… with thousands of supporters chanting and clapping across the hall.

The powerful moment unfolded at the Jalisco stadium… as Atlas and León players gathered in midfield to celebrate Fernández’s life and legacy.

Fans in attendance stood in solidarity with each other… cheering for more than a minute straight as fireworks shot skyward.

Music was played as a young boy dressed in all white walked onto the pitch to release a white balloon into the sky.

That was not all… a message was projected on the stadium screens reading “Don Vicente Fernández 1940-2021”.

Fernandez’s death touched people not only in the world of music, but also in the world of sports…and this tribute was clearly special for all involved.

He is survived by his wife, Maria del Refugio Abarca Villasenorand their four children — Vicente Jr., Gerard, alexanderand Alejandra.
