Britain Asks World Cup Organizers to Investigate Argentina's Falklands Banner

After Argentina beat England 2-1 in Atlanta on July 15, 2026, Argentine players held up a sign saying the Falkland Islands belong to them. Britain and Argentina have argued over these islands since a 1982 war. Britain asked FIFA, soccer's governing body, to investigate under its rule against political messages. No decision came before the July 19 final.
