FIFA bans two English referees from officiating Argentina matches due to disciplinary reasons
FIFA has decided to exclude the English referees Michael Oliver and Anthony Taylor from officiating Argentina's matches in the 2026 World Cup, due to historical tensions between Argentina and Britain related to the Falklands War of 1982. This decision is made to avoid any potential controversy surrounding Argentina's games, as FIFA had previously removed Michael Oliver from refereeing the 2022 World Cup final for similar reasons. Argentina continues its efforts to defend its world title in the quarter-finals against Switzerland.
