Η FIFA επέβαλε βαριά τιμωρία στην ποδοσφαιρική ομοσπονδία της Αργεντινής για το πανό που σήκωσαν παίκτες της εθνικής ομάδας μετά τη νίκη με 2-1 επί της Αγγλίας στον ημιτελικό του Μουντιάλ 2026.
Το πανό έγραφε «Las Malvinas son Argentinas», δηλαδή «Οι Μαλβίνες είναι Αργεντινές», αναφερόμενο στη διαχρονική διαμάχη της Αργεντινής με τη Μεγάλη Βρετανία για τα νησιά Φώκλαντ.
Η FIFA έκρινε ότι παραβιάστηκαν οι κανονισμοί της που απαγορεύουν πολιτικά μηνύματα και επέβαλε στην AFA πρόστιμο 250.000 ευρώ. Η ποινή αφορά επίσης συνθήματα φιλάθλων και παραβιάσεις πρωτοκόλλων ασφαλείας.
Παράλληλα, η εθνική Αργεντινής θα δώσει τα δύο επόμενα εντός έδρας παιχνίδια της με μόλις 50% πληρότητα στις εξέδρες.
