Argentina face fine for Falklands banner in semi-final win

Argentina face the prospect of a FIFA fine after their players celebrated the World Cup semi-final win against England with a banner in support of their country's claims to the Falkland Islands.

After the final whistle, Argentina players celebrated while holding a banner reading "Las Malvinas son Argentinas", which translates as "The Falklands are Argentine"."The semi-final, which England lost to late goals from Enzo Fernandez and Lautaro Martinez, was held under increased security measures because of the historical tensions between the two nations.
