After an extraordinary scheduled World Cup has been concluded, and the year has reached its last few days, football season should be considered definitely over. Time to create a football related street art post!

On the edge of the multistory urban highway Anillo Periférico, on the corner of Gral. Méndez and Gral. José Morán in Mexico City's Amp. Daniel Garza neighborhood, there is small football field. Even though it's technically outdoor, its size suggests that it's more for the indoor variety of soccer.

The winding streets, overpasses, on- and off ramps to this massive artery of city traffic don't exactly offer the most romantic backdrop to a foottie game or practice, so they brought in someone to decorate the walls with football related imagery.

Honestly, I have no idea who any of these people are. They may be Mexican soccer gods of national or maybe even international fame. If you're knowledgeable about the sport you may even recognize them. Or, they could be local football legends, stars from the neighborhood who have actually scored goal themselves right on this little field. In fact, I would much prefer this than seeing the same old faces (which I don't recognize anyway, so it doesn't really matter).

Unfortunately, I can say the same thing about the artist too. As hard as I searched, I could not make out a tag or a signature, or any other identifying feature, other than the obvious sponsors. Never mind, simply the fact that in Mexico you simply can't have a wall without any corresponding murals on it, is a nice thing to appreciate in and of itself.

This post is my entry for this week's CCC Street Art Contest. Take a look at this weekly contest, and if you have any good street art pics of your own, submit them to win cool prizes. If you are interested in seeing more Mexican wall paintings, visit my ongoing blog series Mexican Murals.
