A legendary meeting after 19 years, a political banner and powerful comebacks: the Argentina national team will play in the World Cup final for the second time in a row, snatching victory from England. We have collected all the most interesting: The Argentines secured a ticket to the final at the very end of the match. Literally five minutes before the end of regular time, the advantage was on the side of England: the team took the lead at the very beginning of the second half. Lost 0:1 in the 85th minute, goals against England were scored by Enzo Fernandez and Lautaro Martinez. Lionel Messi contributed both assists. The meeting in Atlanta ended with a score of 2:1 in favor of the South American team. Messi updated his own record for the number of assists at World Cups. He was named the best player in the England-Argentina match, the press service of the International Football Federation reported. After the victory, the players unfurled a banner right on the field with the inscription Las Malvinas son Argentinas ("The Malvinas Islands are Argentine"). The political conflict between the two countries over this territory has been going on since 1982. Then, a war broke out between Great Britain and Argentina over the archipelago: 649 Argentine and 255 British soldiers were killed, and the British won. In 2013, a referendum was held in the territory, 99.8% of voters spoke in favor of remaining part of the UK. Buenos Aires does not recognize the results of the vote. According to the FIFA code of conduct, the placement of "banners, flags, leaflets, clothing and other items of a political, offensive and/or discriminatory nature" is prohibited in stadiums. On July 19, spectators will watch the final match between Spain and Argentina. Messi can become a two-time world champion if his team beats their opponents. Interestingly, the Argentina captain will meet on the field with Spanish footballer Lamine Yamal, whom Messi bathed during a photo shoot in 2007. 20-year-old Messi then came to a charity photo shoot for Barcelona: he had to be photographed with a baby. He got baby Lamine, whose family was among the winners of the UNICEF lottery. Fifteen years later, Yamal became the youngest player in the history of Barcelona. For the first time in his career, he will play in a match against Messi's team. [in reply to: Buenos Aires exploded with joy.
