Argentina players held up a political banner declaring “Las Malvinas Son Argentinas” (“The Falklands are Argentinian”) after their 2-1 World Cup semifinal victory over England, in apparent contravention of FIFA rules.

FIFA’s Stadium Code of Conduct bans “banners, flags, flyers, apparel and other paraphernalia that are of a political, offensive, and/or discriminatory nature” inside stadiums.
