The Mexico Football Federation has been fined after the nation's supporters were found guilty of making "discriminatory and insulting chants" during their 1-0 win over Germany at the World Cup.
FIFA's disciplinary committee handed down the fine of 10,000 Swiss francs (£7,600) on Wednesday for chants directed at opposition goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.
The chants in question featured the word "puto", which is homophobic slang in Mexico for a male sex worker.
Mexican supporters were condemned for chanting the word at the last World Cup in 2014 but, at the time, FIFA took no disciplinary action.
A new anti-discrimination procedure at the World Cup instructs referees to stop the game for a public announcement if any discriminatory chants are heard, and games can be suspended if chanting persists.
The Serbian Football Association was also fined 10,000 Swiss francs over the appearance of an "offensive and political banner" during the team's 1-0 win over Costa Rica.
