Argentina reaches the World Cup final, and drags a geopolitical banner with it

A 2-1 comeback over England booked Argentina's place in the World Cup final against Spain, and a Falklands banner at full-time has put a geopolitical row back on FIFA's desk.

Desk note: Wire coverage of the semi-final concentrated on Argentina's comeback; the banner was the through-line in BBC Sport's report. Monexus frames the incident as a soft-power gesture inside a sporting event, not as either a one-off stunt or a serious legal claim, and flags FIFA's near-certain fine without endorsing either side of the underlying sovereignty dispute.
