MEXICO CITY (AP) The Mexican Soccer Federation says it's investigating the national team's coach and two players over politically tinged tweets sent the day of the country's elections.
The federation says in a statement issued Monday night that it will evaluate whether coach Miguel Herrera, striker Oribe Peralta and midfielder Marco Fabian violated the federation's code of ethics.
That code calls for ''maintaining a neutral position on matters of a religious or political nature.''
Herrera has attracted criticism for his tweets on Sunday backing the Green Party, which had been fined millions of dollars for violating campaign laws.
