1:32Now PlayingDuring post-match celebrations, Argentine players held a banner handed over by fans in the stands, reading “Las Malvinas son Argentinas” – “The Malvinas are Argentine.” Argentina refers to the Falkland Islands as Islas Malvinas. The team could face disciplinary action from governing body FIFA for violating rules banning political messaging on the field. The sporting rivalry between the two countries is heightened by political tensions over the islands - a two month war, which Britain won, took place in 1982 over the South Atlantic archipelago.
