The Mexican National Soccer team was preparing for their match against Venezuela in the Copa America tournament and they were using the Houston Texans facilities for practice. Little did the team know that Texans Pro Bowler J.J. Watt decided to make an appearance and surprise them.

As you can see from the video is that the Mexican team instantly recognizes Watt. Specifically  star player Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez who went total fanboy when he met Watt.

 

This just shows how popular the NFL is in the rest of the world. Another thing of note is the Texans will be playing the Oakland Raiders in Mexico City during the 2016 season.
