6 Argentina players face World Cup final ban as FIFA told to punish actions vs England (LINK) — 16 July 2026
— Ahead of the clash at Atlanta Stadium, Argentina players were filmed singing about the Falkland Islands, which the South Americans went to war with England over in 1982. FIFA rules state that political banners or messages are banned from football matches, and this has left many calling for action to be taken against Argentina. Several players were seen holding a banner which read 'Las Malvinas son Argentinas', which translates to 'The Malvinas (Falklands) are Argentine'. Ed Davey, a British politician who has served as Leader of the Liberal Democrats, has urged football's governing body to suspend 'six players' for the upcoming final against Spain. He referenced Rodri and Alvaro Morata, who UEFA handed a one-game ban in 2024 for a similar incident singing 'Gibraltar is Spain'.
