maori-danceSpectacular reception of Mexico's team in New Zealand (video)

The National Team arrived Saturday at Wellington where it was greeted by a Maori dance group that performed the Haka in honor of the Mexicans

Mexico's team was received with the Haka dance

Mexico had a spectacular welcome in Wellington, as the ambassador in this country, Leonora Rueda, brought to the airport terminal a traditional Maori dance group that received them dancing the famous Haka.

The players, with Miguel Herrera and Héctor González Iñárritu, were surprised by the welcoming performance, something that no Mexican soccer team has had in recent times.

After the exhibition, the group leader asked the Mexicans to correspond with a traditional Mexican song, to which the group responded by singing the Cielito Lindo, which caused the people at the terminal, at the time only dedicated to Mexicans, to get excited.

The group, which arrived almost at midnight of the local time of this Saturday, lived a unique experience, after a heavy trip of nearly four hours from Sydney.
