A playful rivalry has emerged between Fher Olvera, the frontman of Mexican band Maná, and Oasis singer Liam Gallagher, following their comments about the World Cup match between Mexico and England.

Gallagher initially took to social media to express pride in the English team and confidently predicted a 5-0 victory over Mexico. However, the match did not unfold as he expected. Despite England's win, Mexico managed to score two goals, prompting Olvera to respond.

In an Instagram story, Olvera humorously questioned Gallagher's prediction, saying, "What about 5-0, dude? Five more minutes and we would have made them mince meat. Respect to Mexico, in a good way." He acknowledged England's victory but emphasized Mexico's strong performance in the latter stages of the game.

"I send hugs to all the English, but you were being loaded up the last twenty minutes. That's life, whoever scores wins. Congratulations," Olvera added. This exchange followed an earlier instance where Olvera had publicly told Gallagher to "get a grip, dude!" when the Oasis singer discussed the potential scoreline.

The banter continued on social media, with fans sharing comments about the interaction. One fan posted "Oasis 1 - Maná 0," to which Liam Gallagher responded with "More." The playful back-and-forth highlights the passion and camaraderie often seen among musicians and fans during major sporting events.
