Its similar to the banner they held out at port stanley in 1982
But this one has writing on it
@
THATS THE SAME FLAG THAT THEY HELD UP AT PORT STANLEY BACK IN '82
BUT... BACK THEN IT DIDN'T HAVE ANY WRITING ON IT ! 😄😂🤣

It’s like Japan beating America in football and then saying “pearl harbour is Japanese”

If the UK put as much effort and investment into defending their South East sea border as they do this legacy colony they wouldn't be the soup kitchen of Europe
@
Fine/ban these players, if England did this stunt there would be uproar, this is clearly a veiled threat using sport as a platform.

And we get branded racist for displaying the England flag
@
Extremely bad sportsmanship... why not win gracefully?! God this FIFA tournament has been so dirty and scandalous all the way through.
@
Last time the held up that "flag" there was no writing on it! 😂😂

People need to know when they're beaten
In sport and war
At least England won't live in denial of this defeat
Time for Argentina to grow up and accept reality

Argentina ain’t even Argentinian didn’t they go to the americas and kill the natives and steal the land and the Falkland Islands voted to be british

If it was another team holding such kind of banner or symbols they would be banned or punished, but Agentina and princess Messi can do anything.
@
We owned the Falklands before argentina even existed
@
Even when they win they have to behave like a bunch of LOSERS

Thing is on social media English fans were also mentioning the Falklands before the match, both sets of fans were at it
@
Celebrating a war they lost

Low level IQ but happy to take the Kings pound
@
This is against FIFA’s rules but we all know there won’t be consequences.
@
Many of those players quite happy to have or continue to live in Britain taking money from English clubs. Very principled and consistent lads.

Any of those players who earn their living in the UK should be sacked

Libby G, the heartbreak isn't about caution—it's about failing to execute when it actually mattered.

I agree, Sofia. It’s heartbreaking for the fans who invested so much emotion into the game just to see such a cautious approach.

Hard to argue with that, David. Playing it that safe when we needed a goal was a total nightmare to watch!
