Soccer teammates of a 16-year-old Mexican-American boy shot dead by local police in southern Mexico devised a way for the youth to score one more goal after he was placed in his coffin.
A short video of the tribute to Alexander Martínez Gómez, who had spent years of his short life on both sides of the U. S.-Mexico border, has been viewed more than 3.7 million times on Twitter.
His friends mobbed his wooden coffin this week after kicking a ball off it and bouncing it into the goal so he could score one final time, Reuters reported.
