Argentina players display Malvinas banner after World Cup semifinal win over England
Argentina’s Lisandro Martínez and Giovani Lo Celso held up a banner reading “Las Malvinas Son Argentinas” after their 2-1 World Cup semifinal victory over England, in a move that appears to breach FIFA’s Stadium Code of Conduct banning political banners. The incident underscores the long-running sovereignty dispute over the Falkland Islands (Malvinas) and comes amid ongoing debates about political gestures at the tournament; FIFA had not immediately commented.
