Argentina-Falklands Banner Row: Messi's team be banned from FIFA World Cup final against Spain? What FIFA rules and past cases say

Argentina to be banned by FIFA? Argentina's players face a potential FIFA penalty after displaying a political banner. The "Las Malvinas son Argentinas" flag surfaced during their semi-final victory celebration. FIFA rules prohibit political statements on banners and team equipment within venues. This incident echoes a similar fine Argentina received in 2014 for the same banner. The team will likely receive a financial penalty and a formal warning from FIFA.
