A sign causes trouble
Argentina won against England in a game. Players showed a big cloth. It said: The Malvinas are for Argentina. Malvinas is the name for the Falkland-Inseln.
The players were happy about the win. They wanted to claim the land. Fans also showed this sign. People saw the sign on television.
An old fight about land
The fight about the islands is old. The islands are near Argentinien. Great Britain controls the islands since 1833. Argentinien says: That is wrong.
There was a war in 1982. The war lasted 74 days. Almost 1000 soldiers died. Great Britain won the war. The islands stay under British control.
Rules in sports
The FIFA bans politics in the stadium. Football games must be neutral. FIFA checks the event now. Argentina paid money as a fine before.
A law expert says: A ban is unlikely. Argentina will probably pay a fine again. The coach wants to separate politics and sports. He said: It is only a game.
