England-Argentina match high risk due to Falklands rivalry
The FBI has identified the England vs Argentina semi-final in Atlanta as the highest risk match due to their enduring rivalry.
Argentina’s Diego Maradona scored the 'Hand of God' goal against England in the 1986 World Cup quarterfinal, later calling it symbolic revenge for the Falklands War.
Maradona’s son Diego Sinagara urged fans to remember those who died in the Falklands War ahead of the match.
Argentina’s foreign minister Pablo Quirrno called Falklands Islanders an 'artificially implanted' population and demanded Britain hand over the territory.
The UK government reaffirmed the Falkland Islanders' right to self-determination and their wish to remain a British overseas territory.
